time to replace the turbo.
zpi's 16g took a crap on me. im a little disappointed (which is why i was having boost problems earlier) SOOOOO time to upgrade! so heres my question because i have my mani flanged for a mitsu turbo are there readily available garrett turbos (oh say a gt30r or gt35r) with the mitsu mani flange? if there are let me know PLEASE and clue me in on where to find em!

i thought about doing this when i had a zpi kit. because of the sharp downward angle of the outlet flange of the manifold. a larger turbo would come in contact with the block/transmition. if you want to use a larger turbo, then do it right. get a peakboost kit. :D

notch the block huh.... hmmm i dont know about that. you know (and i definitely dont mean to bash zpi or turn this into a zpi bashing thread) but a buddy of mine got one of their preformance clutches for his xb the clutch was 2 tenths of an inch of and seriously messed his transmission up. they didnt warranty or refund the clutch or trans or do much of anything for my friend. ANYWAYS! yea i think i will give it a try and hopefully it will all work out (yikes nervous). ill def give dezod a call as soon as i find out whether it will work or not. im really not expectin him to cut me a deal SINCE i havent bought from him before but im sure they are fair people and ill try them out.

Send them the turbo, plus your ZPI invoice, and they will rebuild it, or replace it Free of charge. This is the company bought there turbo's through.
Turnaround time is 2 weeks
If you call them, they will tell you the same thing. they warranty all turbo claims.
