Just for conversation sake.
Was watching a show called "Two Guy's Garage" which airs on the "Speed Channel" and they did a segment on Diesel trucks who had "Turbo's" installed. Pretty fascination stuff.
Has anybody had a "Turbo" installed in a regular gas powered truck such as our's? Was it expensive? Was it worth the cost?

Well they dont have a kit for a 4.7 but they do for the hemi. Check out STSturbo.com some pretty cool stuff. I beleive the only forced induction that is available in a kit for the 4.7s is a paxton supercharger. That doesn't mean you couldnt build a kit yourself but it wouldnt be really cheap.

I went to STS's web site and sent them an email asking if they offered one for the 4.7, I got an email back stating they "have a remote turbo system for every application", and a customer rep would be calling to answer any questions I might have. I'll let y'all know how that goes.

I lost a lot of respect for "Two Guys Garage" when they started advertising and endorsing the "Tornado". Before that, I thought they were on the "up and up". After the Tornado endorsement, I kinda tuned them out.

The sts hemi turbo kit (with a smaller turbo unit) will work in a 4.7. They may be able to tell you what size turbo they recommend.
But, you still need tuning.
