bigger turbo

ok guys, im on the fringe of buying a new turbo. leaning towards the bdp d66, but want to explore my other options. is there anything else in the same price range of the d66 (>$1500) that will be suitable for my truck? i sort of ruled out the H2e because of the cost and having to replace the uppipes (seems like a very not fun task to me!). ive heard a few things about the air werks s300?? any help is always appreciated.

-Brandon

If you have the cash I would get the D66 if you gonna go stocker only buy this one rather than the one you linked.

I can vouch for Ron's as I have done business with him. Very good service, great products, good prices and a 1 year no mileage warrantee. The turbo you linked as satisfaction gauranteed but did say it has a warrantee.

only other options are to go to superduty pedestal,up-pipes, intake spyer and buy a ball bearing garrett (ok) or a turbonetics unit (best)

or an H2E setup

Biger better for our rigs=D66

Bigger better for new body style=Turbonetics

Bigger better for new body style but will work on OBS units setup=pain in the ****

What does all this who-ha mean, got with the D66, best bang for the buck in my book. If your trying to create over 500hp then dont bother with the D66, go straight for the new body turbo systems. Your gonna need fuel for either setup so if you still got stock sticks you might look at upgrading that aera before bigger turbinators my friend. Good luck
