    Turbo Kit

    I'm looking to buy a turbo kit to get a little more power out of my 4.8L. I found this kit from Trick
    Performance products.

    http://trickperformanceproducts.com/turbo_stage1.htm

    My ?'s are has anybody here bought this kit if so how was it?

    What else do I need to get going down the road?

    Is there another kit that you would recommend over this?

    Also I found a good deal on a Turbonetic's 62-1 turbo for a good price... If I could swap the turbo that comes with and replace it with the 62-1 is that down grading so to speak?

    Is Trick not the same company that I had posted? If not do you have the contact info or where to get it or a website would be good? Thanks

    Want to make good power ? Want to go fast or faster? I'll recommend u a www.nelsonperformance.com kit
    They will take care of you.you decide what style u want,t4/t6,headers type ,big logs,or the flipped manifold style which is a great kit I'll be doing on my daily as well.
    Here's a pic of mine ,08' silverado.mine is a custom header type ,4inch down pipe 80mm turbo ,hob intercooler
    Get u a nice wastegate 50mm atleast and a 50mmblow off valve ,your going to need a good fuel pump and injectors as well
