How can I convert a T3 A/R .48 to handle more power?
I just picked up a T3 A/R .48 in really good condition for only $80. After looking at the max output potential of 275hp, I'd rather rebuild the turbo with a bigger compressor housing before installing it..
How can I achieve this? I've found a write-up on here about rebuilding the turbo but nothing explaining how to upgrade the compressor side. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Ive got an almost new t4 coldside for it... backplate, wheel/housing for $125..... Bought it to do exactly what you are doing.. but i got lazy.

I am thinking about picking up one of the China turbos and pulling it apart, putting the compressor wheel and compressor housing on a known good Garrett center section and T3 wheel. Throw a rebuilt kit in it and have it balanced. Then I can decide if I want something as big as a TO4E 57 for the street,
