I have 90 TII with a few mods and I want my turbo to perform better. I was told by a friend of mine that I should have the turbo rebuilt. He told me to have the company do a 60-1 modification to it. In simple terms he said they would make my compressor the same size as the T04B compressor and also modify my turbine some. I was wondering if this was possible? How much would it cost? Where can I get it done? Would I have to have the manifold and waste gate modified? Any info would be better than none. When it comes to this mod I know little. Thanks.

They usually change the compressor wheel and housing, as well as clipping the turbine wheel to prevent huge spikes. It will bolt right in. Check out the tech section of http://www.fc3s-pro.com .

It's definitely worth the money for the power boost you get. Those upgrades are good for about 300 HP.
