what can I do to this e99 turbo?

my turbo is good, although im thinking of buying a larger size compressor. So I know that means a taller turbo pedastol. I have one , Also have brand new bellowed up pipes for a 2001. Also have the intake bellows and y pipe from a 2001. So what size compressor would be a good set up for a daily driver with a gooseneck hitch i might rarely pull with? I've had about 20 trucks with the 7.3's and never had to replace a turbo. I really enjoyed the van turbo on a 2001 e350 I had. Obviously a different set up than the intercooled trucks. I'll be doing a EBPV delete and hpx. Thanks for the wisdom, Ronjon

Keep your stock 5x5 compressor wheel, or add a billet wheel and it will do what you want, a larger compresor wheel and housing will only get your turbo laggier and will cause high EGT's if you dont get your chip tunned and even when tunned they arr laggy just keep in mind your turbo will flow and act exactly like your stock e99 turbo.

unless your talking about a drop in after market turbo like a GTP38R or a KC38r or....
