turbo me

[DWeiler]

Hello fellow tdr members,i need some advice. Time to upgrade the turbo(please be patient with me i"m kinda new to all this diesel stuff aswell as computers,sorry!). I have been upgrading for about a year now(hobbietruck) and don"t know what to pick as far as turbo"s go. The truck is used for weekend driving(yes ,only 10000miles on her)and some towing(8-10000lbs through mountains). I am kind of leaning towards a pdr hx 40/16 or a ksb1b,what are pro and cons of both or is there another option(s). I am kind of looking for a general all around better turbo to handle all the modification done to the truck, but don"t want to sacrifice drivability cause i still like to put the pettle to the floor every once in awhile against the ricers/ford/chevys. I would just like some feedback from someone who"s been their done that. thankyou. :

What is your truck and what mods have you done to it? Also what mods do you plan to do to it... ie how far do you want to go?

I don't have a lot of turbo experience myself but I do read a lot. Here are a few threads you should paw through. There are many, many more if you use the search feature a little.
