Default still cant decide what injectors to get

im gonna be getting some injectors from sdx i was pretty set on the 5x16's but a guy at work is really buggin me to get the 5x18s.. im gonna get a super b special turbo (64/71/14) but im not sure if it will keep up with everything. basically i want to know if the turbo will keep up with 5x18s or if i should go with 5x16's.
mods: 4k gsk, afe intake, 4in exhaust, rack plug, 18* timing, no plate, afc mods

im sure the guys at sdx will lead ya in the right direction, but im pretty sure 5x.018's will be too much for for a 64. 5x.014's might also work better with the 64. Just give them a call and they will let ya know what will work best.

5x.014s would work best. Your other two choices are too big for a street driven truck.

basically i want a 450-500hp daily driver... think i can do it with just the 5x14's? and if i went with the 5x14s would i still need such a big turbo?

5x.014s will work very well with a 64/71-14.

you will like the sdx injectors, what is you overall power goal? what is this truck used for, DD, tow, race, pull?

you may want to go with a 62mm, give chris @ engineered diesel a call (616) 608-2977. There 62/68 turbos with a race cover flow very close to the 64mm compressor, they also spool quicker.
