Turbo help please!

[puff1]

I have a 92 d250, I shouldn't have bought this truck. I sold my mint 2001 and bought my 1st gen because I love old school. The first thing I ended up having to do was rebuild my rear-end, $2500 later I realized I would never sell this truck.

There has been some mods but I really don't know what has been done. This truck does 8 second 60's so it must have a tweeked pump and injectors. I was told it has an upgraded turbo but I looked and it is an HX-1 I don't know how to tell what size of housing is on it.

I bought all the gauges and have not installed them yet because I want to up-grade the turbo, my brother just bought a pdr hx-40 for his 2002 and will give me his stock waste-gated hx-35, is this a good up-grade for my truck, my goal it to get 400 rwhp. Please tell me what you think

PDR has a sale on the Master Power turbo I have. Judging by the fact that I've never heard of them before I bought it, I gather that its not anything outstanding, but the price was right. I needed something to lower my EGTs until I get ambitious enough for twins and didn't wanna spend a lot. It's got a 3. 5" exhaust opening as opposed the the 3" thats on your turbo... I think. It sounds real nice, especially through my big air filter. Cruisin speeds with no load I'm getting about 10psi. WOT off the line I hit about 30psi. And on rare occasions when I put my foot in it at just the right speed on the freeway I've hit around 36psi. I haven't towed more than an empty car hauler flat bed since I got the turbo, so I'm not sure what it would do if you really worked it.
