Looks like the K&N maybe?

Stick with the stocker..rebuild kit costs about $120..rebuild it yourself. Other option is send yours to Bean and for about $700 get back a D66, add some inj and have fun!

What ever you decide get rid of that K&N and do the 6637 intake mod. K&Ns are a disaster waiting to happen on these engines.

If it were me I woud stick with the bigger housing if you already have sge. 1's. I would go with the Beans dominator 66 but I think it is more like $1125. The smaller housing will hurt your egt's oh yea and ditch the k&n unless you oil it every other day I would ditch it anyway.

I've got what is basically a 1.0 and I like it but I do have to keep an eye on egt's if I'm hammering on it for long. I'm gonna give the 1.15 a shot again soon. I'm told the small housing kills some mileage and my turbo runs five pounds of boost constantly.

Darth, if I were you I wouldthink you would want the larger housing with stg 2's in there. I pull a lot of steep hills so I want to move a lot of air at high rpm to keep egt's down. You give up a little on bottom for more on top with the bigger housing.

OOPs, Guess Bean changed the price..still would go that way.

ok with the old turbo it made 34psi of boost, I got the 1.oo housing turbo from rons turbo of ebay, I do have an intercooler it's just on yet. will I notice a difference with the new turbo?
