Whats the right turbo for me?

hey guys i've been trying to put together a shopping list for my truck build and i think ive got everything down except for the turbo
heres what ive got

238/100s or 200s
valair clutch
headstuds
valve springs
push rods
adrenaline or drop in stealth
beans tuning

now i know most of you are gonna say h2e but im trying to look into something a little cheaper that will still work and be used for a dd

i was looking at the T4 mount from murff racing, now would that work for me and what options for turbos would i have?

thanks...hopefully some of you know more about turbos than me

Re: Whats the right turbo for me?

if your tight on money just a regular tp38 with 1.15 compressor housing and a bigger 1.10 exhaust housing is a good buy i hear. Your injectors would spool that all day.

Also this turbo bolts right on to the pedistule so you dont have the hassle of getting new up pipes. beating the crap out of your firewall and all that bull.

That is an awesome turbo for a daily driver with hybrid injectors. Even have a few guys running it on there OBS trucks without intercoolers...

Re: Whats the right turbo for me?

I think the only opyion you have without converting to a super duty is a D66.

I have most parts to convert it if your interested though
