In Reply To	the difference between cast and billet is just posted by zxtuner161 on November 16, 2009 at 02:06 PM
Message	The OP over-emphasized the billet aspect of the compressor wheel, which has no impact on the performance of the wheel. Researching further, I see that the compressor wheel is a brand new design, which would account for the performance increase. I am bummed, however, that the new compressor wheel is quieter. I like hearing my turbos when they spool up
