If I'm not mistaken that white car has a shit load of compressor surge every time he lifts off the throttle. Does it have any kind of blow off or bypass valve on it?

It has no BOV or bypass, hence the noise it makes.

That makes sense. Why run without a bypass or BOV?

I believe it's a low boost setup. Like 3-7psi? You'll see a lot of auto boost setups that don't run them either.

Don't need one if you have a good quality turbo as there's no ill effects

Premature bearing an seal wear.

Yup but I will say most journal bearing turbos take a ton of abuse plus rebuild kits for some of these turbos are cheap. I think I spent like $50 for a T25 rebuilt kit..

Guyz its a $150 cxracing turbo with more miles than all my recent builds combined lol. it's only been at around 9lbs its whole life. Its been like 3 or 4 years without a BOV and it doesnt burn oil or have excess shaft play.its been auto-xed, rally'd, Daily'd and raced without issue. if he has to spend $150 every 5 yrs for a new turbo he doesnt mind.

Its literally the go anywhere E30.

Id say 280ish, I really dont know. its on WAR chip so we cant run a virtual dyno to get an estimate. My Subaru WRX made 290whp on a stg 3 protune and this car was faster.
It has similar motor to me, 280/274 cam, HD rockers, 7lb flywheel, 42lb injectors
