new to this site, just wanted to share my truck and ask for some advice on a turbo built.
i have a 2014 gmc sierra scsb with a 5.3 v8 wanted to see if anyone knows or has some good info on what would be the biggest turbo i can go on stock motor with cam ect.
im currently running a street tune and long tube headers 3 inch single exhaust with magnaflow & 4 inch corsa tips nothing fancy yet.

Why would there be an issue? It's not like the exhaust is mounted directly to the frame. I dont believe any of the GM trucks have a flex joint in the exhaust. They have the rubber hangers, plenty of give.
