Sorry if this is in the wrong place but I need to replace my turbo and am wondering what route to go. I have a 1994 12v cummins with a #8 fuel plate, 4 in straight pipe, 75 hp injectors, bored 40 over. Colt cams big stick, 60 lb valve springs, 3k governor springs and timing at 16.5. Has a 5 speed and full ceramic clutch. All of witch have been swapped into a 76 dodge powerwagon and it is intercooled.
My question is I have a hx35w and its passing oil. I was thinking of doing a hx35 hx40 hybrid when I rebuild it. I am wondering if this will be enough turbo to get me around 40 psi of boost. I have also been thinking on the lines of a s300 but not sure what sizes to go with for the best towing and spool time. don't really want to spend the money either. I don't want a lot of lag because I live in Colorado mountains and need to be able to stay in the power when I shift with a load. Or am I just needing to do a whole other turbo than I mentioned?

 

what are your overall power goals?

 

To spoil up good with little smoke and about 40lbs of boost idk what that builds up to but I would think around 350 to 400 hp on a dyno

 

I think I'm leaning for a s300 with the 63/68/14. What do you guys think about that?

 

tis a good choice IMO

 

ok. any other turbos that you know of that are good for the application?
