If I go with the ATS compressor housing, is the anything else I should do or replace. Does the ATS housing bolt right up to the inducer. I have a 3"-4" down pipe, do I have to get a new one? I'm also thinking of getting the wicked wheel upgrade. I know its been asked before, but should the turbo be balanced after the swap? Should I stick with the stock wastegate or get the Banks Bid Head Wastegate?

The housing should come with a new inlet hose to go from the CCV to the housing.

Performance wheel is your choice. I'm going to finally put mine in when I install my new non-wastegated exhaust housing. As far as balancing goes, my turbo rebuilder that does our irrigation engine turbos told me the shaft and wheels are balanced separately. So if the wheel you get has balance marks on it you should be OK. Many have several thousand miles with them that way.

BBHA works better than the stocker. I personally am going with a non-wastegated 1.0 exhaust housing.

Get the turbo-master controller from Dieselsite. Take the computer out of the equation!

I would stick with the stock wheel with the ATS housing, more boost... more efficient.

I had both on mine, did the WW first to try and fix the surge, didn't work... Added the ATS... It was LOUD!!!

The BB is quiet in comparison
