looking at getting 5x. 016 nozzles. What else? All input is appreciated! Just need to know what to upgrade. Turbo went out and figured I'd start towards my goal of at least 500+rwhp.

I am told that the link is broken... Turbo is: HOLSET HX52 FMW BILLET COMPRESSOR WHEEL TURBO 66-70-16CM

why such big injectors? that turbo is going to be slow to light, it will work but you will have to wait on it. 500hp can be done with MUCH MUCH more eco friendly parts.

Just found that turbo for $425 and nozzles for $300. I know I need more stuff like head studs and head gasket...

remember cheap and quality dont usually go together. just putting nozzles on your original injectors can be an issue, as you will have absolutely no idea what pop pressures are.

My sisters boyfriend is a Valair, as in Valair clutches. Planed on having the nozzles installed and benched along with benching my pump at their shop... Your right cheap and quality don't always go together but sometimes you get lucky...
