Message: [QUOTE="Strokersace, post: 1552058, member: 622"] 100% what it is. When I first experienced it years ago on my old 2002 that was stock except 4” turbo back exhaust and open air filter, it scared the crap out of me! The wicked wheel is pointless, actually flows less air than the stock SD wheel. But in theory slows the air down which is supposed to limit surging. That’s what I recall anyway. It’s been about 15 years since I’ve had a stock turboed ANYTHING! If you were dead set on keeping a stock turbo, put a van turbo on it. It has the 1.15 a/r turbine housing verses the .84 housing and the same compressor side as the truck turbo. That will eliminate the surge. I also added an ats compressor housing at the the time. It certainly didn’t hurt! Ran big injectors (for 15 years ago) with it and didn’t have surge, but turbo was tapped out. Honestly though, by the time you spruce up a stock turbo, you’ve spent 1/2 the money or more than just buying a KC or 38r drop in. And then you’d had some upside potential. If I recall, the newer KC drop in outperforms the Garrett 38r in almost every way. If I was doing it all over again in today’s timeframe and NOT going bigger than a stage 1 injector, maybe a small stage 2, I’d go with the KC Turbo drop in. [/QUOTE]
