Turbo question?
If I take the front compressor housing off will it mess up the balancing of the turbo?
Similarly if I take off the rear turbine housing will it mess up the balancing?

You are going to give yourself a lot of lag, if your running greens the .48 should be fine and a lot less laggy

I think you would also experience some loss of power with the housings removed.
