Well I finally have some down time from my busy schedual (6 hours today) to ask you guys with some help / suggestions. When I get back from the crusade (joke)I am getting my engine built, however I would like to know if anyone has or knows of anyone that has upgraded the stock 1420 PE turbos. Looking for turbos that will bolt right up to the stock manifolds or upgrading the internals of the stock PE turbos. Fellow PE'er please chime in.

well, you can just ask the guys at PE if another series of their turbos will bolt up. You may be able to use a PE1520, PE1820SP or F. Or maybe the IHI VF series....
all those options are not the cheapest, and you may want to look into a different kit if you're really looking for more power. (i say that b/c of the price of the turbos)
