use a nail clipper! just give me the turbo i will clip it for $5 per fin:poosie:


dont clip the turbine wheel, its a cheap way to have less back pressure but its way better to get a proper size turbine wheel.

just fork out the cash and get a hybrid monsta!:bigpimp:

Nothing wrong with getting a turbo clipped, Buschur Racing has been clipping the TD05H wheel on their 20G turbos 20 degrees for years. First 20G in the 10s. It's a lot more cost effective when you consider that a larger wheel needs the housing bored out for it so depending on the size of the housing that could also mean a larger housing.
But definitely get it sent away somewhere to do it proffesionally. Cherry Turbos in Ontario or ADP in Vancouver if you don't want to send it across the border.

there has to be a place in calgary that can do it..its not like its hard at all, you just need a tool to get the exact measurements so that you have an equal degree of clipping all around...PM Toma on this board (dude who owns dymomotive and ahs a TT mustang)..he may be able to help...

yah, I'd like to know if anyone in calgary does it. I know a lot of the DSM guys in the states have had great luck once their turbo maxes out.

"Think" is a relative word, like driving an auto that really has no balls what so ever. But hey, what ever works for ya man:dunno:
