The Official TURBO thread

If anyone has questions concerning turbos, boost, etc, let's talk about it here.

 

Best turbo for 4.6, all different brands, and good enough for stock bottom end and good enough for forged bottom end.

i only recommend turbobygarrett. any other brands you'll have to do a comparison to the Garrets to make sure they are the same specs.

for your 4.6, i recommend either the GT3788R or the GT4088R. You would want to use a smaller A/R for the 4088 to reduce the amount of lag (not that there will be a lot) since you are running a turbo that can handle up to 6.0L.

 

When I was in screen printing I did a bunch of shirts and jackets for them. I accually have some that I wear. Wonder if I can get a discount lol

 

any diesel turbos?

 

a turbo and its workings are all relative, regardless of fuel. the biggest problems w/ upsizing diesel turbo's is the fuel. its not like you can just increase the injectors like we have. you need a whole new pump to push the new flow needed, and pumps are expensive.

 

U can put a different compressor wheel In to boost the psi a lil bit. We did that so much when I used to work at turbo power systems

 

Nm, just saw what you said on the other thread.
