trapedo Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 My hilux is year 1997 2.8 litre 3L engine pick-up in very good condition, clocking <200,000km. It is my daily-usage truck, commuting on asphalt and gravel road (50/50), carrying 500kgs of load occassionally. Now that i am going to put 35" MT tyres on 16x9 alloy wheels (and lifting it)... - i am seeking ideas/suggestions here as to which turbos, specifically, are the best available options to be installed to the stock engine. The truck will be intercooled, and radiator & exhaust changed to bigger ones accordingly. I prefer a widely available ones, costing 5,000baht - 40,000baht (brand new or used). CT20 turbo is definitely out of my mine as I am more keen on ball-bearing or VN type, giving me more ommps on the first 10 seconds of acceleration, especially coming out of a junction... Top speed, obviously, is not a consideration. TQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lickey Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Check if your engine [non turboed] will take a turbo, might need different pistons,injectors ect.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
