Port and polishing turbo housing for 9?

I was just wondering if there was any gains by doing this? I know a guy that can do it for me and does amazing jobs at it. I was thinking about doing it and he said he can put a 20g wheel in it would that even help any?

Unless you have tuning software, I wouldn't run the 20g. Couldn't hurt to pp the stock turbo though!

When you say 20G are you talking FP Green/Buschur 20G-LT or the Turbochargers.com 20G?

If someone can port a hotside, then give them a hotside. And then go with an EvoGreen.

Sorry I didnt see what you said. I would not trust ANYONE with "putting in a 20G wheel." That does not sound good. If youre going to get a 20G, get the 20GLT from Buschur (or FP GREEN from FP). Defintely porting of the turbine housing is good.

i thinks you are wasting youre time and may be looking for trouble,,,, bro youre evo 9 turbo is more than enough,,, you can make trmedouse power with the stock 16G,,, althou i you are looking to go that route the best thing to do is buschur 20g.

on the other hand just so you get an idea there are people running in the low 10s on a 16G evo 8 which is an even smaller snaill than the 9,,,, seriously you are fine with what you got..
