Turbo choice?

I want to install some 100 or 150hp injectors. I'm not sure what kind of turbo would be sufficient. I dont want to go overboard. I still want to be able to tow. What about a hx55 or a hybrid.

you'll never spool an hx55 as a single and a street truck. it can be used as a primary in a twins setup though.

I have II phat shaft 62/14 it pulls nice a little lag down low but with some rpm it spools fast. I pull heavy and my egts are very manageable. If you use one of these S300 type turbos you will need a Hx40 down pipe and mod your oil return with a slight bend.

Who's injectors are they? I suggest garrett GT-3782R or a GT-3788R. You can get them in a wide range of turbine disk sizes and turbine housing sizes. More or less depends on your driving habits.

Borg warner S360 to S362 will work find at well. Just don't spool as well as a garrett ball bearing unit.

BW just released a new line of EFR turbos.

More or less comes down to how much money you want to spend...
