bigger turbo
I was talking to somebody a couple of weeks ago and they said with the bigger injectors and larger exhaust I should get a bigger turbo since it spools up faster. What do ya'll think?

I have hit 30 a couple of times but usually I don't push it to much past 20. Maybe since I don't push it too hard I can get by with just a rebuild? I plan on getting something newer in 1 or 2 years. Thanks for the advice fellas!

Well I just won a turbo of ebay from Ron's turbo service for $350. I figured this will hold me until I upgrade to a newer truck. He states in the listing that it will hold up to fuel upgrades. Did I do good on this one. I seen in other posts that some of you were giving him good reviews.

that turbo from Ron's is just a glorified stocker. The center sections in these turbo's are junk. They fall apart when un-equal drive pressures occur. Go easy on the stocker and she'll last as long as you need her to. Good luck
