Hey guys. I am pretty new to turbos but I have a buddy looking to sale a Garrett M27 turbo with intercooler. I am not sure all the specifics or even what it goes on. Anyone ever heard of this type of turbo?

That's a little baby turbo .48 compressor and turbine. I wouldn't use that on anything but a small 4 banger.

What is a good reasonably priced turbo to buy in place of the stock one?

If you don't mind putting a different flange on the downpipe, I'd go with a Garrett turbo. Several different combos to go with.

It depends on a lot of things. Your goals, your budget, your skills. Bolt and go I always tell people the 20g is a nice bolt on but, you really should at least do the "reliability mods".

Don't screw that truck up. It is very nice, I looked at it a few months ago but timing wasn't right for me to buy it. You should drive it for a while the way it is. Fix the things that go wrong... and they will. You need to learn what you are doing and how everything works before you throw on a bigger turbo. Even if you have money burning a hole in your pocket you can't just spend here and there. You need to have a reliable daily driver and at least $2,000 set aside for when the 4L60 transmisison goes out. Once you have that, you can draw up a plan and start saving your pennies

Also, learn to use the search function and google before you make a new post.

^ :stupid: stock turbo will take you into 11's easily enough. reliability mods are also performance mods.
