What kind of 2004 Silverado turbo kit should I get?

I’ve been wanting to get a 2004 Silverado turbo kit. I heard they can boost your gas mileage. I never messed with any of that before though. Is there a specific type of kit that I should get?

A turbocharger can definitely improve your Chevy’s fuel efficiency—and it’ll do wonders for your horsepower as well!
As for what kind of turbo kit you should get for your 2004 Silverado, your best bet is going to be the On3 Single Turbo System, which is available at TurboKits.com for $2,095.
If you’re looking for something a little cheaper, MMISpeedShop.com offers their LS Single Turbo Kit for just $1,624. It’s a full-frame T4 turbocharger that comes with complete installation instructions.
Of course, I’ve you’ve never tried installing your own turbo, it might be a good idea to hire a professional mechanic to put it in for you—just make sure to get a quote ahead of time.
One thing that you should be aware of, as you begin

are probably going to go up.
Providers view any significant modification as an increase to both risk and car value—meaning they’ll charge you more in premiums.
