I got to thinking today, and feel free to correct me because I didnt put much thinking into it, but it did cross my mind, but would it ever be possible to somehow put a larger compressor housing or modify the current GM-X to flow more air using the same quick spooling exhaust housing, like a larger compressor wheel or something? Just wondering. I bet it's basicly impossible. It just crossed my mind haha
 
Since the exhaust housing is the worst part about it I dont think it would help much, but I'm sure anything is possible.

With a trim value of 50 the stock compressor isnt really holding you back, but I could see where using a larger inducer and housing might help low throttle, low boost performance/efficiency.

A Naturally Aspirated engine benefits from not having the exhaust restrictions or intake restrictions, caused by the turbo. Less power without it, but more efficient.
