I tried searching earlier posts and couldn't find what I was looking for. How much boost will I get from a .84 housing and will I need to change headbolts or be in any danger of seriousely messing anything up?
with stock injectors have no fear you can't hurt anything

If I remember right, I gained like 3-5psi with just a BD Power chip and gauges, otherwise all stock when I put mine on.
There's nothing to worry about, the smaller housing will make it pull alot harder off the line, the sound is excellent too! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img] One of the best mods I have done so far.
You can get the 0.84 housing from GTS Motorsports for around $134. That plus approx. $10 for o-rings for when you put the turbo back on, you can't go wrong for under 150 bucks.
The tires will hate ya for it though! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
