Thought about it. Figured I would give the CR's a try. This is after I painstakingly cleaned the shafts, had them and the new compressor wheels balanced. Billet wheels, extended tip exducer, 2-3mm taller inducer.

New journal bushing, thrust plate with thrust bearing components, turbine and compressor piston seals, upgraded CR compressor wheels, and TurboSmart 7psi wastegate actuators. Also have new coolant/ oil / exhaust gasket and seal kits for the install.

mrhighcaliber try to put together a step by step in a new thread.  I'd be interested in knowing the work involved in order to better gauge if thats something I'd be willing to take on.

I can pull the related posts into a new thread if mrhighcaliber is ok with it.
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Im assuming install/removal and turbo rebuild? I'll see what I can do. It's a 4-7hour job for removal. 2-3 for the rebuild. 4-6 for install. I will make a separate post.
