Hello first time here on the forum, never realized there was a forum specifically for Colorado. Looking to get some feedback from local owners.

So my turbo has been smoking for a little while now, and decided to finally upgrade it to solve the problem and get better performance. My car is completely stock unfortunately, but hoping that will change. Two questions looking to get feedback on.

1. What turbo upgrade would you recommend?

I was thinking of the BNR stage 2 turbo, any thoughts?
Good place to buy, looking at The RPM store.

2. Any recommendation on shops to install it?
I have a small level of car experience and with two kids don't know about tackling the project myself.

I look forward to hearing your feedback.

Thanks lots of great info on here. I hope Mort will give me some insight.

Sooooooooo, the first "issue" per say, is that you are totally stock. So, my first bit of advice would be to decide if you want to drop 3k or more in mods. And as far as upgraded turbos, what kind of performance are you looking for? Tons of power, more pep then stock, ect...? Feel free to message me, I actually just got done last night with putting in a gtx3067r in auroraaxela's car. I had a gtx2867r in my old speed as well as being involved with 3071 and 3076 installs.

But you will need a down pipe, intake, intercooler, exhaust, and few other things to take full advantage of the new turbo.

this + HPFP (high pressure fuel pump) internals and tuning is absolutely required.

I knew I was forgetting something.

Auto tech fuel pump internals are a must, like orange said.
