Thanks andrew the sr20 im not really interested in due to the amount of changes required for that turbo. I may be interested in either the high flow wheel or the other wheel. the rear housing would be off a fj20 with the .63 housing im assuming?What was the front over off do you know ? and also what size piping do you use for the oil feed.? regards chris
