Time for a new turbo

I was just playing on my dirt road.when I got to the other end and had no power got back home and pulled off the airfilter. and found the turbo eating itself. man this thing is slow without a working turbo. Anyway its time for a new one my mods are #0 plate FF 370's 3k gsk wanting to go to4k gsk big exhaust and air filter. trans has a billet convertor and shift kit and is holding ok for now. What Turbo should I go with.

As mentioned the II or HTT 62mm turbos will work great for you. Be sure and keep an eye on your coolant temp when running without turbo boost.

Bad shaft play turbine hitting the housing. But I now have the Super40 and the 370's installed. after some small adjustments it is running great. with the 370's it needed less pre boost fueling. and I had to adjust the idle. but I realy like this combo. Thanks! to all on DTR.
