Just for curiosity's sake

Let's just pretend that I wanted the next upgrade to be a new turbo.
With my current mods, what would ya'll suggest?

Hypothetically I'd recommend twins cuz you hypothetically have a large quantity of disposable income

J/k- how about a hybrid? BB? Phatshaft?

I went to Industrial Injection's site to read about the Phat Shaft, as I have seen many folks here running them. However, when you click the "About our turbos" link, you get a page that says "Coming soon".
Not sure what a hybrid is, I thought that was some sort of car (Prius, Civic).
By BB, do you mean ball bearing? Is there enough history with these in a Dodge/Cummins application or are they new?
Was checking out BD's on line last night. The Super B looks like it might fit my, ahem, "needs".
I am looking for something that is not laggy, will perform well on the street and will let me tow without an EGT issue. Don't plan on dragging/pulling.

Wishin' I had a large amount of disposable income,

Go with either a Phat Shaft 62 or a Super Phat Shaft 62. Both of these turbos will spool well and provide excellent cooling for your truck.

Come on Rob, I figured a guy with 2k+ posts would know a bb is a ball bearing turbo and a hybrid would be a 35/40 turbo =P

Ok, so I knew BB meant ball bearing and I have seen "hybrid" before, but really never knew what it meant. I never paid attention to turbo threads because:

That was from about 3 years ago.
