Hey all. i've got a 1st gen manifold setup on my eclipse. can i directly bolt on a 16g without any additional mods?

i'm currently running a 14b

i've got 550 injectors right now. will i need to go to bigger or can i still be ok with 550s?

i've already got upgraded air intake (w/ k&N filter), 1g bov, and an manual boost controller.

any insight would be nice

I've been considerin upgrading also.

I've been following some thread on Tuners on the Ebay turbos. Sounds like you taking a chance on the cheap Ebay turbo, some people have had good luck. But a lot have self destructed. The main bearings seem to be the problem. They don't use standard MHI rebuild kits, although I think Garrett bushing fit and are better quality.

The going rate I found for a real Mitsu 16g was in the $500-600 range.
