Turbos

Check my sig, what is the best turbo for drivability with my setup? I tow the occational, 10,000 lbs or more. I do not want to have to drive by the pyro, and don't really see a twin setup in the future. What would be a good street/tow setup?

How do you like your 62/14? Keeps things cool, good power. I'm looking for a similar horspower/torque numbers? 450hp

i wouldnt go with anything bigger than a 62/14 itll spool up faster than a 64 and keep things cooler and the faster you get air in the slower ur egt's are gonna rise thts my opinion

Thanks for the suggestions. So looks like I need to find a 62/14. What brand? I want reliability to be my main focus. I'm looking to make a purchase by the end of the week.

well high tech turbo and Industrial injection are both realiable turbo companys both that are pretty much the same turbos made by the same company but u cant go wrong with a HTB2 or a phat shaft. or get one custom built by a turbo shop tell them what ur doing with it and they may clip the turbine wheel to help spoolup and that makes cooler egts thts my opinion tho

No complaints with my PS62/14, spools quick for stock sticks but the AD helps out.

62/65 would probably be a good choice. You'd want a smaller turbine and/or housing to help spool it up if you have a tight converter. That should be good for 450hp quite easily.

I would say a Garrett stage 2 would work great for you.
