Re: ssautochrom turbocharger
IMO the turbo is way too big for a stock d-series. A t3 .48/.60 50 or 60 trim would probably be a much better choice, especially on a stock engine.
Some people have good luck with the SSAC turbos (I personally know a guy who ran his for over 2 years with no issues), and on the other hand you have an overwhelming amount of people who've had nothing but bad luck with them...everything from compressor wheels falling off at full boost, nuts falling off the wheels, and the most common seems to be extreme amounts of shaft play after a few weeks, although it's unknown whether or not the users followed the instructions for oiling the turbos when they were first put on. If you want longevity, stick with a well known name like garrett, prescision, holset, MHI, etc.
