Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Largest stock replacement turbo

[Niro]

I have a 1997 215 pump and in the future I will be looking to upgrade etc.



I really dont want to go to twins because of cost mainly and I do not want to have to redo the downpipe if I were going with twins etc. .



I was wondering what is the largest upgrade of stock replacement turbos, meaning I can use the same downpipe and stock bolt on capability etc.



thank you

Look into an S300.

IIRC S300s have a 4" DP.

Basically Im looking to buy one of Rips exhaust systems and it comes with a 4 inch downpipe and 5 inch exhaust. I dont want to upgrade or have to replace the downpipe again (kind of double work since the whole system has to be welded regardless)

Dodgezilla hybrid is probably the largest drop in charger, meaning you can use the stock down pipe. You should really decide on your charger 1st and then just pick the right downpipe if your going to do the exhaust anyway. For the price of a dressed DZ you are near the price of the S300 chargers that will perform much better, imo.
