which turbo?

ive been looking toward a new turbo and am thinking about a van turbo. will stage 2 single shots be too much? i was hoping that this turbo could take me from where i am to where i want to be....450 hp 1000 ft lb. ive seen alot of people make good numbers with them. also what years van turbo will work? any or pre 99? thanks!!

Stage 2 injectors aren't to much for the van turbo. You will need to look for one late 99 up.

i dont want to go crazy.......i want to pull a sled with it and race it but most likely never will. just like to have something cool!! is a few hundred for a van turbo goin to do what i want?.........i just dont want to spend 1500 on a 38r............because i wouldnt......id spend 2100 on a H2E, then id be pissed cause id have 5 or 6k in a modded motor that needs an 8k rebuild to be all that it can be!!! it never ends!!!
