Default turbo question

thinking about getting the thunder 330. but im worried i wont have enough fuel to get her going. question is will my 70hp sticks be able to push out the fuel needed. also think about getting the II bag o parts when i get the turbo. would that help any?

and a new exhaust manifold. man my tax refund is gonna be gone after this.

Should be plenty of fuel to get her lit. I'd go with an Arson III kit from Wicked Diesel. You get more bang for your buck. Just my .02

if you have a smarty and an airdog with 70 hp injectors you may want to consider a modified cp3 that smarty and those injectors will fuel enough to eat all the fuel the cp3 will pump after about 2200 rpms. a mod pump will really wake up your top end.

I have a few customers running the Thunder 330 with Stock Injectors with no problems.

Really depends on the mods they are running. Guys with Stock injectors are usually running the Smarty TNT files and see a little lag but much lower egt's. Seem like 50hp-90hp injectors are perfect for this size turbo.
