turbonetics fixed geometry turbo... thoughts?

[livinlots26]

So I found this turbonetics turbo the inlet is 58/71 74 .59 A/R. Just wondering if anyone has any input on this turbo. Right now I have a powermax with a mtw single plane wheel. I'm using 175 injectors and have a gogo diesel ported intake. As well as other things here and there. My question is how well will these injectors handle this turbo, right now I can light up the power max quick as hell but I'm lacking top end power, and what would the drivabilty be? I use this truck for everything and just don't want to lose function over form.

I'd stick with a quality turbo through a trusted vendor.

Turbonetics has old tech wheels and their diesel turbos aren't spec'd properly IMO. I ran one on a Dodge and was less than impressed to say the least

The turbo you listed is very small. I would never run that with 175's.

Agreed. 58mm is stock wheel size. With your Pmax you have almost a 64mm. I'd be willing to bet you'd lose performance over where you are.

Thats an extremely small charger for the application, its meant for small 4 cyl engines.
