First question is, WHY do you want to change from the Garrett, to a 20G ?

Correctly set up, I would expect the Garrett to out perform, or at the very least match the 20G.

Do you have the HKS kit ?

I would expect the map to need tweeking.

yes it does have the hks kit the only reason was thinking of changing it was because couldnt get hold of another one the one thats on at the minute has a slight oil leek on the top oil feed and its also starting to whine loudly on boost the 20g seems to be quite easy to come by thats why was thinking of changing

Can't you get the Garrett re-built, it would be a shame to down grade ?

If oil is leaking from a fitting, it can be addressed, if the turbo is whining, it needs to be inspected, so you know if it's a problem, and if it is, if it can be sorted.

If it turns out the Garrett is screwed, and will cost a lot of money, then it's worth considering the options.
