Default which turbo??

so I'm swapping out my icp and I have to pull the turbo, I'm going to swap my turbo out as well. I do a lot of daily driving in town, towing, hauling and such, but I'm also wanting to make 500-550 hp, so my question is what are some turbo that would work for me? are turboneticsinc any good?

Stock sticks? Don't think you will make that power with just a turbo. Need the fuel for the fire as well. I am doing 190/100s in the next few weeks and a MTW MadMax.

I will be doing sticks and fuel later on, but it's a work in progress one step at a time. So I'm doing turbo now, then I'm doing fuel then injectors.

Get a single plane compressor wheel Pmax for now. Then down the road jump up on the injectors. You will be advised that tuning should be changed to make the most out of turbo or injector upgrades.

You could get damn close to 500hp without injectors but it's not a cheap way to get there.

Ive heard good things about the Barder and KC Turbos. I recently went to the RCD 68mm with billet wheel. Cant wait to get the truck back to see how it performs.
