Default turbo?

I have a 03 Cummins HO with an edge ez tune, muffler delete, and cold air intake, all I’m wanting to do is upgrade the turbo but without having to add head studs. I will do that later but for now all I want to upgrade is the turbo, it’s a daily driver and I haul maybe once every 2 to 4 weeks. What are your recommendations?

Thanks!

S362/65/.80 gated or S364/68/.80 gated i would go with the 64 if you ever plan to do any more upgrades like larger injectors

The s300 series are borg warner chargers. For the 362 a phat shaft 62 is the best deal. For the 364/68 we have them built for us by an authorized borg shop.
