Just a general question...I know a few (mostly Dr. Tweak) have clocked turbos for there set ups. My question is why doesn't all the 3s and 5s guys do it. Clocking the turbo isn't that hard, just relocate the wastegate. It would shorten up ur ICP leading to a somewhat faster spool and its looks better imo. I'm actually going to be doing a midmount setup this winter with the sr cause of the difference in spool time. I was just wondering y no one does it?

the diffrence between a clocked turbo and non clocked turbo as far as spool will be negligable at best.
99% of the guys that do clock them use a hard 90 right off the turbo, IMO thats just about the same as the soft 180 the guys who dont clock use. the only advantage to clocking the turbo IMO is looks, unless you have an IC with the in and out on the same side, like itchyb has. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
