I have a 1996 7.3 cclb auto trans with baby swamp injectors. I think they are the 150/30, with intake and 4" exhaust. Also a hydra. My turbo is starting to leak and I have to re seal my plenums so turbo has to come off anyway. What would you recommend turbo wise to actually use my injectors? Right now I'm running stock turbo with 1.10 exhaust housing . The only pulling I do is a 3 horse trailer with 1 horse very seldom. Still need to do an intercooler . Nothing crazy , looking for above stock.
Thank you.

We’d probably recommend a stage 1 with a .84 for ya. That’s what we include in tow packages with 180/30 injectors, and it runs great
