whats anyone doing to their trucks for this winter?

im hoping to upgrading the stock turbo to this innovative f2 58stage 5
link- i hope it will bolt to atr down pipe
http://www.innovativeturbo.com/pages/cart_itemListings.asp?catId=35

and adding atr 3' external gate dp with atr waste gate/ no cat/ cut out and
prolly an 11/ kenne bell 3000 stall converter.
(this is pending on a deal.)

along with that some stereo kick panels upgrades
and the flexolite 2800cfm electric fan.

Re: winter projects- turbo

No offence...just an opinion here but if your going to spend the $2k web price on that turbo, it looks like a lot of money for a small turbo that requires a lot of expensive additional ex. components to install (different D/P, ext. gate, ???). Why not just go with a Waller, RPM bolt on up grade or a PTE 67? Rest of the plan looks good :tup: !

Because I know how much he's paying for it, and yes in most cases a garrett clone is not worth what ITS wants for it.

isnt cheap -
just not the internet price

that turbo is allot bigger than stock and will spool faster than the others because of duel bb.


already own the dp/ waste gate

im sure a big improvement over stock will be felt

Re: winter projects- turbo

My build is running into winter, so I'll consider it a winter project. If my builder ever gives me the specs I'll start buying.

Rebuild with ARP hardware, Vortec heads, cam, turbo pistons etc. RPM Stage 3 turbo, A2A intercooler, 3000 stall with built 700, and alky with an RPM chip. The truck is currently bone stock so I am going to do all the basic upgrades also, fuel pump etc, and a set of gauges and most likely a cowl hood if the GP happens. Hope to have a pretty mean street truck.
