for small turbos like this a EWG is not needed.. It will control boost better, but its not needed. EWG's help the bigger, stock location turbos like a FPRed flow better at higher boost levels (25psi+) because without them at higher boost levels the tiny hotside of those bolt-on turbos cant flow enough air and you get bad backpressure issues. But on a small bolt-on like this it is not necessary.
id STRONGLY advise you to run a EWG setup with this turbo. there are people who run IWG but you might run into boost creep issues like i did and it will restrict you a lot of potential. i came back from the drags this weekend and it was trapping 102mph with a decent launch because of timing pulled from knock. and you definitely dont want to be over boosting with knock at high rpms
Wonder what it will put down with 93 octane and meth injection ..

Sweet set up May be going with the new dominator 2.5XTR or 3.0XTR .

@Iflysti06 its a glorified 20G ball bearing....not a GT35R , 49lb/min wheel = not that big a deal
