I have been poking around many of the turbo threads. I read the great IHI showdown thread. I had stuck vanes. Well the vanes were free. The ring was stuck on the housing and would not rotate. While I am in there I am wanting to do a few mods.
1- New rebuild kit with 360 bearing
2- Wicked wheel 2
3- new stainless ring with vanes (OEM profiles)
4- Polished comp housing
Number 5 is my biggest question
5- Upgrade to 10 blade 6.0L turbine wheel
----Many of them require machining of the turbine housing or there is a drop in from SP Turboost.
Is it worth machining to accommodate slightly larger 6.0L 10 blade wheel or should I simply leave stock turbine or use the drop in 10 blade?
6- Cerakote turbine housing inside and out
Thanks for any input.
