That's not too bad all things considered.

I'm taking the car to be tuned on Sunday so hopefully it at least holds up for that haha. Definitely going to start tucking away some $$ for a Garrett

Honestly this turbo was cheap and preformed well. If it was street only it would have lasted much longer. It had good top end, not horrible spool for a churbo, and had no shitty fitment issues. Street car low boost it's a good turbo. Track Car... spend the money and get something good.

I had this Churbo on my BEG-S Kit, and my stock WG actuator was far above 15PSI on midrange setting. I backed off before I could tell where the "stopping point" was. Funniest part is that's how it came from BEGI with a ??PSI-10PSI WG.

It pulled like a raped ape until 15PSI though, spool was a lot earlier too back when the WG was sealed up tight by that ridiculously strong spring.
