Best Turbo???
I've been putting off getting a turbo for a while now because l dont know much about them and of course the price. But its time to break down and get one. I have a 2001 cummins with Stage 5 injector nozzles, stage 5 edge chip, smarty programer, and a industrial injection vp44 hotrod injection pump. What would be the best turbo to get?

Obviously, you have an '01.
Is this a stick or auto truck?
Do you have a SO or HO pump?
What is your gear ratio? Tire size?
What do you use your truck for? Towing? How heavy? Tooling around town? Racing?
What is your altitude?
Are you planning on twins (compounds) in the future?
All these questions will help nail down a specific recommendation. It's easy to suggest something I sell to get your money, but it's better that you get an honest answer. Turbos are NOT a one size fits all proposition. And a little research and planning now will avoid a large financial regret later on.
There are some basic recommendations that hold pretty true of most trucks. Just fill in some of the info and go from there.

It is a stick with a 750 hp clutch from velair. I do have an HO pump. Also have a F.A.S.S fuel system. I think my gear ratio is 3.73 but i cant remember. Ive got 35 inch tires. I live in Austin, Tx. I dont know what the altitude is here. Twins would be nice but i dont know if i can afford them unless i save up some more. Still would like to think about it.
