Knowing that my little disco potatoes will not make my power goals for this car I was sitting down looking over the forced performance upgrade order form and I thought to myself " theres got to be a more cost effective idea than this. 1500$ to upgrade two turbos is pretty steep,(not that I wont pay it if I have too because im not for cutting corners.) so I was doing a little "googling" to find out a couple of things 1. a GT2860rs and a GT2871 are the same turbo and 2 from what I can tell a GT2871 and a GT3071 are the same cartridge just larger compressor and wheel so I guess to get to the point here;

can anyone EDUCATEDLY CONFIRM that it is possible to convert my 2860 to a 3071?
