Artisan EVO SA-X 50 Turbo Upgrade

As far as I know it's basically replacing the smallest part on the Stock Turbo which is the compressor wheel while it leaves the relatively decent sized exhaust wheel alone. It will cure the boost taper and falloff at 5500+ RPM's and get you a decent hp boost, but it's not going to be as large of a jump as the full replacement turbos like the FP Red, Dominator 2, or GT3076r. On the plus side there should be a very minimal hit on lag so those looking for a highly responsive auto-x turbo I bet this would really shine while still having better top end power compared to stock.
If anyone has some recent dyno plots or quarter mile numbers for this turbo I have some friends that may be interested in a turbo this size.

I will do this turbo for $1000 shipped for any phone orders for the month of June that mention they saw this post on Evo-M!
I will throw in the forge wastegate upgrade for $150, for a total of $1150 (normal retail on the turbo alone.)
That's a $200 savings!

ok so lemme get this str8...aside from bigger piping and upgraded intercooler and a tune(after turbo replacement obviously) all i need is the turbo itself for it to work properly? no fuel injector or fuel pump upgrade?

I think most full bolt on cars with the stock turbo are around 400 crank HP and 110-112 mph trap speeds in the quarter mile. Usually Injector duty cycles are over 90% at that point and that's with 19 psi boost at 7500 rpm. I'm pretty sure you are out of injector by 430-450 crank HP with the fuel pump giving out as well.
This turbo would likely allow 24-26 psi boost at higher rpm's allthough that's only speculation on my part so you would have to keep the boost down without fuel upgrades to avoid leaning out without control.

Yes, we would recommend injectors (Deatschwerks) and a reflash for optimum performance.
We have had excellent success with the AMS mail in flash, or we can do dyno tuning in house.
