So I Replaced the Turbo AND Exhaust housing…OMFG WHAT A NIGHTMARE! MY suggestion is to NOT have to replace that housing, I Didn't really think anything of it and GEEZUS Chrysler what a Bastard,

@aarthology says:

So my Question IS, WHY NOT CLEAN THE MF UP since you’re Already there?

@ramonhernandez3812 says:

Great video bro. I have 07 saab 9-3 2.0t with 45k miles . Any upgrades on this kind of turbo

@Hardyno says:

Hi, what performance did you manage to get after tuning with this turbo? And what is the maximum potential power that can be achieved with this turbo?

@piermanent6905 says:

I have a question, if you put this turbo, do you need to make a firmware for it, add some boost, or only put it in and drive?

@goldeneagle99 says:

Front end off mine to do this..still not easy at all…bolts in insane places! Insanely seized!!!

@okletsskate says:

Question. I live in car hell (CA) and we have smog checks that now check if the ECM data has been modified. I am looking to do this same turbo upgrade and was wondering if the car ran with this turbo and stock tune well enough to not trigger a CEL? (Not pushing it of course) – I plan on tuning my car with this upgrade, but would like to keep it stock ish when it's time to smog it.

Hi friend. I have Saab 9-3 1.8T, 2003. I have some problems if you can help. First one P0033 (turbo charger problem). Second one when I drive, smoke comes from around to turbo(or under the turbo cover)

@homerfj1100 says:

My goodness everything is squashed in to such a small space so that there's next to no room to work.i have a s/h t14 turbo for my 2 litre with upgraded injectors. I hope it won't be as difficult as this. Thank you.

@robertoolazagasti1689 says:

I have a 2008 2.8 turbo automatic transmission. Can my transmission handle that kind of power if I upgrade my turbo for that one?
