    All,

    I am new to the turbo game, but I want to get my feet wet. I have a couple low mile indy pace trucks, and I want to turbo one of them. I'm not looking for anything crazy, maybe 450/500 ish HP. I would like to keep the engine as stock as possible. What size turbo, and what extras do I need to know about? I've heard some guys mention using stock headers flipped, and some mentioning wiring in an aftermarket MAP sensor. Also which ECU would I need? Really spitballing to see what all might be required other than the basic hardware for intercoolers, plumbing, and such.

    #1, decide how you're going to tune it.

    larger injectors and fuel pump . Aftermarket ECU might be a good idea.

    Great question. I plan on just taking it to a tuner.

    i would talk to your tuner and see what he is used to. Holley is really popular
