I am look at pricing and install like this. Compare a procharger d1 is about 5,500$$$ Then it's time for headers, injectors and you still have belt issues and pulleys to buy and your always running into belt issues and they never look all that reliable. Seals going oil changes ect. A radix is over 6 grand.
I was going to pay up for a BB turbo anyways

I want a smaller super quick spooling street truck. The truck is my own toy for work. So for me the only extra cost is going to be the oil less upgrade which is only 400$
I would rather avoid running lines tapping my oil pan all the oiling issues which are the main source of turbo owners frustration.

I am still less than a supercharger and can adjust the boost as I want or need. With a top notch set up.

I was thinking this would have a nice quick spool I want to keep the boost not to crazy.

Sizing a turbo is a little more then just the Cubes of that engine. What RPM are you looking for, race street, pulling etc.
I have used a 62mm .81 a/r on a 6.0L (stock) set up. 10psi by 2200 rpms..
That set up is over 6 years old, and is still going strong.

The oil less is only needed if you are putting the turbo in a low location bad oil drain location, or you have to mount the turbo in a weird angle.

57 is a little smaller then I would ever put on a 6.0. Call them up and go over all the specs and wants for your set up. We are dealer for them and can help you the pricing, and selection if you like.
