GPT38r upgrade

Is there any point in installing just a GPT38r on it's own with a PHP Phoenix chip? I currently have the Phoenix installed and know it will have to be changed to take advantage of any upgrades.

Will the turbo on it's own do much without replacing injectors and other equipment?

It will not do much but it will give you the ability to upgrade your fuel system, intake and exhaust if you have not done so already.

Better spool response and lower egts on its own. But to really take advantage of it you need more fuel.

Good tunes and a stock trubo can get you surge...38r will not surge with stockers or mild Inj's..plus towing egt's will be lower.

Have them in stock and if your looking for inj's etc we can do a package.
