    Wow for such a big turbo I would have thought of seeing some bigger numbers out of it.

    It will make 400+ on pump and 440+ on meth. Super fast spool.

    I am contemplating selling mine and getting the SZ55 when the time comes. I wonder how the two compare?

    The SZ55 is a 55lb wheel where the GT52 is a 52lb wheel.
    The SZ55 should make more power. Plus, if you've already got a 16/18G, you should be able to send it in and have them rebuild it to the sz55. It'll probably be much cheaper than what you paid for the gt52.
    You know you'll have people interested here if you decide to sell it.

    I can't see it being cheaper. Virtually everything has to be replaced. td06 housing upgrade, 8cm housing upgrade, machining, etc. I'd rather have a brand new center cartridge and have the piece of mind.
