Dave i have my 4k's just not in the truck and when the fuel and turbo got added i would be putting them in if that changes anytthing. What do you think on an exhuast housing? Should i stay with a 12 or would i be happier with a 14 in the long run?

Depends on which turbine you decide to go with. I like a big, free flowing wheel and a tight housing.

Well my friend is willing to let the super B go for 600 for me and i dont have any exact numbers but i know the turbo isnt that old and doesnt have a huge amount of miles on it. It was probably on the truck no more than a year. And correct me if im wrong but a super B is a 57-65-12 correct? Im really leaning toward the super B because of money, but Im unsure with my experience and knowledge if it will be able to support my fuel plans.

you would be fine with either, if you plan on twins later on I would go with the 14.

free flowing turbine housing that doesn't choke it is a better choice IMO

super b is a 57/65/12 or 14 cm, and no that charger really wont support a whole lot of hp.

I dont plan on twins. Im a single kind of guy for some reason. So im still up in the air.. I may have to stick with less fuel and just stick to a smaller budget for now it looks like. Oh well!
