Calgary,
I was cruisin around tonight and I just happened to turn an ebrake into a 7000RPM 1st gear burnout, which, in turn, made my turbo go boom. I don't know what happened, perhaps the shaft from compressor to turbine broke or something. Anyways, whatever the case, I'm looking for a small 16G I think. I have a pretty much stock set up...fuel pump re-wire, hacked air can, etc. Will it work. I want to run probably 15psi or something. I was running my 14B at 20ish PSI and I was hitting fuel cut, but at 15/16Psi, it's cool. SO, overall, is there going to be a problem, do I have to get a new pump, or will it just be fine? THANKS Guys.
 
when my friend did a big 16g, he did a new fuel computer, injectors, etc just to make sure there wouldnt be any problems. he rips ebrakes into burnouts all the time.... just got new tires on it, so i dont think he will do one again any time soon, but you get the idea.

through all of my reading here ive discovred that you probably should do a bunch of supporting mods to your car before you throw in a turbo.
