I would go with the Aurora 5000 and do a Arc Flow, just give them a call, they could work something out for you

Can you say LAG-MONSTER? I couldn't imagine daily driving or towing with it while being mindful of smoke.

I think a 62-14 or a 62-12 will make for the best daily driver. After that, maybe a 64 or 66. I think a 66 would be ok with an auto, but I didn't like it with my six-speed. A little smoky and laggy for me. I like the turbo to light quick, and waiting until 12psi isn't quick IMO. The 62-14 would light at 5-7psi in my old truck.

I've heard some good things about the silver bullet, but I think it's laggy (at least the truck I rode in it seemed to lag).

I do love the sound of a big turbo with a big intake!

i know ats makes a good product but thr 500 is a big turbo lots of lag. my buddy just came back from there with his dmax and its runnning a 3000 and seem to be fast. that is not all he got but that is all i can say.
