i have a 97 with stock turbo and i was wondering what would be the best thing to do for a new turbo, or maybe different housing? thanks!

 

what are your mods fill out your signature so everyone can get an idea and let you now.

 

Okay Thanks, I Have A #5 Plate And Boost Elbow And Straight Piped

 

You running any gauges? Boost and pyro readings would be helpfull. You an automatic or manual?? What gears you got? How you plan to use the truck to do drag racing or hauling stuff? Cost important?

 

well i will be towing about 9k pounds every now and then just up to the mountains. i have some guages, just not installed yet. it is a auto and i not sure what gears, whatever stock is what i have. and cost is kind of important to me, i only 19 and still in school... thanks alot!

 

you really want a transmission befor a turbo. trust me on this one. i have the same set up as you. i have 33in tires, auto, 3.54 gears.all i did was turn my pump up and i snapped the input shaft to the tranny. get the guages in and see what your egt temps are first and what you have for boost as well. everything in my sig is on a stock turbo and i have towed 10k up some good long grades with out to much of a problem. i either have to keep it at or above 70mph. if i slow down in over drive you will want to kick it out and you can criuse at 60-65 all day without problems. just watch the temp on the stock trannie. i just had a gps in the truck and my 70 is 76 just to let you know. and my 65 is 69.
