Not very much. You could start by addin a j-hook or turn buckle to your waste gate. But anymore added fuel and youll want to start thinking about bigger turbo.

Trucks like mine and yours are stock with with about 215-225 at the fly wheel. That prob drops to 175ish rear wheelhp. So really, 325 isnt too bad for just havin intake filter, exhaust, chip, and mild sticks.

Im shootin for 450 rwhp and plannin on addin 100ish hp sticks and bigger turbo to get me there. Aslo Im at 4,500 ft though.
thats my .02. hope it helps

Your more in the 350 or more range. You need a turbo upgrade and youll be in the 400area. A comp and built tranny will put you in the 310 320 range if your vp is strong.

I am guessing 350 max. Probably 330. That little HY is done at those levels anyway.

What turbo would you all recomend, I would like to be around 500-600 someday.I do have a brake spring off a semi holding my waste gate it works great. i have had some over boost codes with it so I am guessing it works good, i need to take some pictures of it and post it in case someone else would like to do it.....cheap too...

HA hel yea! I wish I would've known what I was doin more when I bought my J-hook. Couldve made the same thing from home depot for 5 bucks.

But anyway, Id look into a 62/65/14 turbo. Maybe even 62/71/14 to keep temps cooler around 500+ hp. Im a fan of indusrtial injestion turbos.
Imsure youll get a few others pitchin in on this topic.

When it comes to turbo's I am kinda behind, What does all the 62/72/14 mean I know its size but is it millimeters. i will do some research it will be awhile before I buy any performance parts since I just purchased a tranny....

The 62mm is the inducer size of the compressor wheel, 72 is the exducer size of the turbine wheel. These are all just numbers that are part of a math formula to figure wheel trim.

The 14 is measured in cm which is how Holset measure their turbine housings. It's actually a .80 a/r by Borg Warner standards.
