personally i think you will be fine for now, until you throw some injectors in there. one option you can do is block the wastegate..it will add more boost. the stock turbo will be fine for now. this is just a cheap way to get more boost.. u can spend the 65 bucks or so to get yourt boost fooler if u want.. but i like saving money.

yea for now you should be fine. you will need a boost fooler once you get bigger injectors. just a little tip, i found that a set of 150 or 100 hp nozzles on that truck and the edge set to the lowest setting works great.
