Combo as follows:
3.2 I-6 motor
GT-K 550
.82 T3 Turbine

Compressor surge can be the result of several factors. Typically when a compressor is surging that low in the RPM band its the result of one of two things.
1. The compressor and turbine chosen are too large and are literally stalling with not enough exhause gas energy to keep the turbo in front of the surge line.
2. The turbo is producing more air than the motor is set up to handle at that RPM.
Can you share more details on your setup?
