Turbo wheel upgrade for 1998 12V?

Does any one make an aftermarket turbo wheel for a 1998 12V with stock turbo? Thanks

I have to get a new one and would like to upgrade if there is one out there like a wicked wheel for a powerstroke?

Hey SeaHawk,
Which upgrade did you go with? Or is your turbo still stock?

I haven't touched it, but I've been considering going with one of them. Probably the larger wheel, and upgrading to a #10 plate, 3K GSK and AFC spring set at the same time....
