hey fellas im not a big poster on here. Im also not new to the diesel world or building and racing of diesel trucks. Ive blown more than my fair share of money building diesel trucks. Some with better luck than others. lol live and learn.
Anyways to make a long story short. I have a 6.7 thats mostly stock.
I just drive it,play,and occasionally tow toys. Have a offroad desert truck we race and pulling the distance with the stock turbo is started to build up some serious anxiety. Knowing if its gunna get me on of these days at the worst time lol
Naturally not being able to leave anything alone started looking at turbo kits. i have personally been around 2015 swaps and h and s fixed vane kit bd mdp kit etc. So i knew there was alots of support. little did i realize the HUGE arguments and discusssion going on between vgt's and non vgt's.
I search the forums and find nothing but arguments most from people that dont know what they are talking about and others that get bashed for a opinion good or bad of one or the other.
I was really hoping to start this thread with a total HONEST opinion from people and there real life experience. With NON vgt and vgt chargers and kits.
Best way to do this is list of mods proper tuning (obviously very important ) dyno numbers track times overall drive ability towing why you chose the setup you have price egts etc ya get the point
i know what setup im going to buy and why. Honestly i wouldnt know what to think if i was just searching with no clue what i needed. There is big names pumping both sides of the field on here and every where else.
But curioisty has me and lets help the people that really need help getting setup with what fits there needs most and that dont really know what theyre looking at. Dont let them go to the local diesel shop and get a kit shoved down their throat that doesnt suit their needs!
Lets NOT bash everyone to bad lol and PLEASE dont be scared to admit to downfalls in any vgt or non vgt kits that you may experience!
