You could sand the inlet smooth and polish it up nice with a Dremmel or similar. Smooth the airflow... the difference is probably too small to worry about it.

That said i'd do it - I'd do the entire compressor housing though!! 8)

yes is true they max out @ 12psi

but for my set-up this is like stage 1

thats way the small turbo wasnt a big concern

searching with the part number it points out i came out of a

300zx 88-89 kind of old

but this one looks in good condition no shaft play

i already polish the inlet and gave it a paint job

i know it will come off i hope not

is a engine paint with ceramic holds 500 deg.

very nice paintjob and yeah the turbo is a bit old but the important thing is that it works, right?

I see that you already have your manifold, very nice.

Thanx for answering,
