So for a DD lb7 What turbo would best suit my truck? I dont tow anything other than a bass boat. I dont have a high HP goal because I just want to enjoy the truck and dont want a built motor. Maybe down the road I would like to compound. And I want something that will spool fast. What turbo should I be looking into?

HTT66 or any S366 will do... quicker than stock spool up im told, can make 600+ on a stock cp3, and they seem to be very durable

Me too Henry. That's the charger I want eventually, I'd like to know around what I'd be looking at. Thanks.

When Henry says HTT and 366 he means the company HTT and then just the base model 366 charger. You could also do a 466 which will give you more options down the road if you want a bigger single. Also if you are going to twin it down the raod ask Henry about a WG pedistal.

Yes just if you step up to the 400 series there is no built in wastegate with the S366 its a wastegated turbo so it makes a nice starter turbo and would twin nice with a S480

I have 2 turbos in my possession right now. 1 is a gt4088 that needs a rebuild the other is a almost new Airwerks s300sx 91 79. It's got a 66mm inducer and 91mm exducer. I could buy a 4094r center cartidge or I could put on the s300sx lookin to max stock internals wich I think is around 700hp? I already have a suncoast stg iv tranny. Truck is a daily and I tow a race car to events.

Was just looking into the turbos here and was wondering about the GT4094?? I do use the truck for daily driving and some towing, i also take it to the track. Been trying to read up as much as i can. How will this turbo do?? Or would i have to go with something smaller? :confused:
