well rust will sometimes cause it to get stuck I guess but how often does that happen

you can run safely on that turbo and stock fuel around 16/17 PSI. with a turbo upgrade and fuel upgrade that motor can take over 20 Easy in stock form.

Sweet. That'd be sick. When you talk fuel upgrades what do you mean? fuel pump, injectors, etc?
At 16/17 PSI how much horsepower do you think i'd have?

with exhaust and intake too, prob. 250ish maybe.

My friends talon raced me when I was bone stock and he stayed dead even with me and he was AWD, he had intake exhaust 1G BOV upper IC pipe and MBC at 15-17PSI somewhere in there. and the stock 03 EVO dynos 248AWHP
