    The best turbo for the 2002 Tundra is....... no turbo at all. Engine was not designed to handle much boost. The factory available TRD supercharger caused issues over 6lbs of boost. You'll want/need much more than that to make real power. If more power is the game, much cheaper and more effective ways to have lots of power in a truck that wasn't designed for it (think LS swap). As a science project? Start a build thread and we'll all subscribe. Go big I say, 80+ mm Garrett with a 100 shot of nitrous to boot.
