Performace Turbos for 300sd
Any recomendations on aftermarket performance turbos for my 300sd. It's pretty much stock right now but im looking in to upgrading parts for better performance. What turbo options do i have, im not looking to make it a drag racer, just more power and more boost. Im also going to be doing all the work myself so ease of install is a concern.
Thanks
Thanks

The stock Garrett you have is good up to about 180hp and 15psi of boost (All that you will get from the stock injection pump). Look to upgrading the compressor wheel with a 50 or 55 trim wheel from a 300SDL or a 60 trim from a 2.3L Mustang SVO instead of the entire turbo.

Oh, and get rid of that Lovecr@p "conversion" and "cold air" intake.

eddietr Sorry to be off-topic, but do you have any pics of your SD?
