turbo upgrade question

so i dont have much knowledge on turbos. i was hoping maybe one or more of ya'll could help. i am looking to upgrade my turbo. im currently looking at a Silver Bullet Phatshaft 62/80. is would this be a good combo with my current set up? i like to be in the 550-600hp rang if possible with what i have now plus a turbo and head studs. any suggestions?

Others are sure to chime in on this, but with only 60hp injectors I don't think you would be very happy with that charger. Seems it would just be too laggy on the bottom end. I have Flux 2 injectors and they drive my 62/65 perfectly. Only smokes when I want it to.

If I recall correctly the SB is a 62/74, that combo likes fuel and Rpm.

I would look at a 63/68, its the best all around charger for an actual work truck/tow rig/ weekend racer/street truck etc.

But don't take my word for it call a few vendors and discuss your goals and the way you use your truck.

In no specific order call

Forced Induction- they do it all
Engineered Diesel- custom and a little more cash
Manning Motorsports- from Box units to worked units and some of the best pricing.

If your talking about Industrial Injection, do yourself a favor and do some research on here and some other sites. They seem to be very hit or MISS when it comes to waranty or customer service after the purchase.

They busted their buttons for me. I'd buy from them in a heartbeat. Their 62/65/14 is doing great. Craig

I've had a silver 62 on my truck for 50k+ miles with no problems.
