For the OBS trucks, yep. You can do an H2E for about 2200 I think. Some people have done a switch to the superduty turbo's, but that ball bearing is 1600 just for the turbo and you have to swap all kinds of stuff. Keepin it simple, D66 is the only way to fly.

Didn't catch the stage 1's..they work great with the stock turbo..IMO better to spend $$ getting rid of the K&N and getting a 6.0 IC

WHS!! Plus once you take the stocker out of there you will never want to put it back in there. Your stocker will do OK with with stg.1's and an IC. I would shop around for a used H2E or similar set up. I found a great deal on a Wide open performance QSSB same mounting as H2E and can be modified for larger injectors as well. Both are more durable and flow more than stocker does.

HS...not at all. Yes I hate the stocker never want to pul one again and yes I use a modded H2e but doesn't change the facts that its a good combo and a IC is needed and IMO $$ better spent.

I agree stock turbo is junk. I'm using a modded h2e now and love it!! As i mentioned earlier in the thread i ran a beans d66 with stage ones and it was great!!! but it didn't like when i put stage III injectors in it haha. Needless to say it didn't last very long. I did swap it out for an H2E before it exploded though.
