That would cause some headaches for sure. You could use it but, you'd have to have a wastegate for sure. If it were a little cheaper you could buy a huge exhaust housing and run that in conjunction with n2o. But, if you are only gonna tow you could get by with it.

What will cause the headaches?

I'm thinking the smaller turbine housing would create higher rpm drive pressure which would suck for racing or sled pulling. So to help with just the two mentioned a waste gate would be required and have to be purchased. To make the charger work for even higher torque requirements, a larger housing would have to be purchased as well as n2o.

It depends on what you want to do with the truck?

10-4 I was trying to remember what I had on my 4088 but I think it was a .95

You might want to move this over into the for sale section. You will most likely get a few more looks at your for sale.

That's fantastic, that will put you in a 2.6 charger class. What are your plans from there? When will you put it on?

ya i hope it is what im expecting! turns out the compressor wheel on mine was done :mad:. well we'll see how long im amused with this power, then a built motor and twins, and when it goes under the knife for that, it might lose its lift, and get a set of 285s. the guy is pulling the turbo outa his truck friday, few days for shipping i guess. i'd really like to put it in myself, but im outa town for the next 22 days probably. the trucks in the shop getting fixed from a deer, and hes alot the guy who pulled the turbo, so it might be easier for him to jus throw it in and tune it

Good luck to you with what you decide. At least, it will be better than what you have now.
