Did you get one with the large exhaust wheel, or the smaller one? There are quite of few of turbos from BW out on the market like that, that were inexpensive because it used too large of an exhaust wheel to match with the compressor wheel. I'm changing one of those as of now for an individual. results get a little disappointing with the larger wheel on the SOHCs from my experience. Hopefully you got the smaller exhaust wheel for the 9 bolt exhaust housing.
