Default stock turbo output?

hey guys. i am about to put some new injectors on my truck and i was wondering if any of you know how to get the most out of a stock turbo for a low price range. i already have a straight pipe and the waste gate blocked but is there any parts out there where i can get like a better lurbine or something like that.

Only other real thing you could do if your hurting to keep the stock turbo is do a 35/40 hybrid conversion

UNPLUG YOUR WASTEGATE!!!!! your turbo is going to dies expecially with more fuel. it will build the same boost #'s or real close to them!

and as stated above the 35/40 hybrid with a bigger exhaust housing.

makes like a 60/56/14

I just finished building a 40 hybrid using a super hx40w. Its the 6 hi / 6 lo wheel, and came with a massive 18cm2 housing. I threw on my old Wh1c 12 cm housing, and brought the whole thing in to be rebuilt. I'm installing it tonight.

I'll let you know how it goes.... will be fun running a bigger turbo in the Camino. ;] Now I just need to replace my 160 injectors and bump the timing.

I found my hx 40 compressor side on ebay, and my 86 mm x 6 blade wheel from BAE turbo. Robert can balance your rotating assembly too, and it is nothing to put your own bearings and seals in your rotating housing. The whole thing cost me about $300. Blocked my wastebate, and she will cough up about 38 psi max as tried so far with current set up.
