Turbo Advice.

Looking for a reasonable upgrade to my turbo, mainly so I can get a little more low end spool, and run 4 inch all the way to the stacks that are coming.
Looking into the HX40, basically a stock (I think) truck, with a 3 inch exhaust now.
The only numbers I can see on the turbo I have are these:
Exhaust Housing: E40 1-129 cast on it,
Intake: BK2300 cast into it.
Any ideas what it is? I'll try to find some more numbers if need be.
I've got the w/g locked open, and it will just touch 32#'s on occasion, 30 is the usual high, but the pyro moves faster than the tach.

Thanks
Brad
