Default Garrett turbo

Ive been reading up on these turbos and was thanking of getting one but I was wanting to know everybody thoughts on the powermax series pros and cons. Also which stage turbo kit would you go with having a juice w/attitude and some 100hp injectors. Thanks

Stay away from these chargers. I've got 2 or 3 sitting around that customers would probably let you have a deal in. These things run good on some trucks, but most of the ones I've seen just dont feel right. Lower boost numbers, slow spool. Tried 3 stage 3's on one truck , bad spool and so on. Put a 66 on it and it's fine.

Your pretty close, I've got a buddy thats taking a stage 3 off if you want me to check on it!
