Default Best turbo?

What's the best turbo to go with my set up? I want good top end and for it to be fairly snappy off the line. A little lag is okay. Everything is in my sig. Thanks guys

super b special from bd!! it would be sick with your set-up. i have the smarty and quadzilla adr and 150 h.p injectors. the turbo is sweet it spools fast and pulls all the way to redline, with 200 h.p injectors you might run hot while toweing but not toweing your in good shape

I hear nothing but good things about the super b special. I never tow with this truck anymore so egt's won't be an issue. I just want a strong running street truck that I can race and pull if I want to. What does the super b special run for?

HTT has had nothing but bad said about them lately from what ive heard. seems like theyre lacking a little quality control lately and definitely lacking the customer service side of things

A super b special is basically the same as a Super PHat SHaft 64 or the 64/71. IF you are thinking of going with a garrett I wouldn't use a 3788R I would probably step up to a 40R of some sort.

That would be my suggestions with a single turbo. I don't think they will clear up all the fuel you have though. a Silver Bullet willl probably come close but you will sacrifice some spool up.

my 62 would clear up my 200 ddp's it ran warm wouldn't run that for a dd but wanted to try them out. The garrett prices are pretty equal to super b specials a bb turbo will spool faster. This will be my next purchase for my truck.
