Default replacing the compressor wheel on an 18G turbo?

I heard that there are bigger replacement compressor wheels for an 18G turbo. Is this true? How much and where can I get them?
What size is stock? What sizes are available?

maybe I said it wrong. What I meant to say was that I have a TDO5 with an 18G compressor wheel. Are bigger wheels around?

there is a 20g wheel but it might need a different compressor housing to go with it. this sounds like a good question to ask a good DSM Shop.
