After going through some problems with two prior turbos (story in link below.) I ended up working with jusmx and he put together a Kinetic G60 T04E compressor with my old .63 garret t3 housing. I installed the turbo and ended up getting compressor surge from around 21-25 psi, depending on which gear the WOT is done on, the quicker the spool, the worse the surge was. It "seems" mild the boost gauge does not fluctuate and the performance is not affected/no hesitation or "bucking." Also I read that this can eventually destroy the bearings so I wanted to figure this out. Can someone explain exactly whats happening? I have never had experience with this before, and is there anything I can do to combat this issue? Maybe bigger charge pipes? intake/exhaust modifications? Thanks for your advice
