No, I don't really ride the tracks anymore like I used to, but when I do I ride in Paige at CrossCreek. I ride on my property alot, since it is mainly a gravel pit type terrain with a big lake on it.

Cross creek is not too far from me. maybe about 30 min. There is a place at milano that is suppose to be pretty nice but have not been yet. 1,100 acres with camping and showers ect...

I don't know where you guys are getting all the high prices from. My buddy is running one on his second gen. They can be had for 1600-1700 all day long. Not much diff from the HTT and II turbos.

the 3rd gens seem to be alot more then the 2nd gens. Please post some prices if anybody finds some good deals. Did anyone find out the size of the stage 3. How would the Garrett turbo spool compared to stock?

I have this turbo . have been running it for about 25,000 miles.Size is apx. 63mm by 71 mm . Spool is equal to or better than stock. EGTs stay at 1150 or below, on 8% grade by 6 miles. Cruse EGT at cruse are like a 12 valve. Water is plumbed through the heater core.

Stg 3 has a 88mm compressor wheel with 52 trim. From what I've read of Garretts website a stg 3 should spool close to stock. A stg 2 should spoolup quicker than stock.

Is it a tight fit with that turbo in there. Any problems with the install I should be aware of? What mods are on your truck?

No, fitts like stock. Water lines add about 1/2 hour. If you are going to add a exhaust brake then you want Tom at( http://www.turboresource.com/) to install the corret flange for you. Then it attaches with a Vband clamp like stock. Mod are, Garret GT 37 Stage 3 From Turbo Resource, Afe stage 2 w/ Pro gaurd 7, cat delet, AFE Blade runner, DiabloSport DL, TST, Van Akkin 3.1 & 35 Pro Comp Extreme AT'S

I have always been a very big fan of Ball Bearing Turbos especially since I came over from the powerstroke crowed. I was always told these turbos were not rebuildable though.
