Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) help which turbo

[RossA]

ok guys i am sellin my ATS 2000 cuase i added WAY more fuel and now its to small. some have told me i need to go with a 62-12 some say 64-14 and some say silver bullet. dont need the run around. truck is a daily driver but i NEVER tow. do alot of street racing and thats about it. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

With the sticks you are running along with your other mods I would go with a SPS64. The 62 will be toasty and the Silver Bullet is overkill and much slower to spool. The 64 will spool almost like a 62 but cool much better.

I would say a 64/14 standard, or a 64/14 with a low pressure turbine wheel just depends on how much HP you want to make. The 64/14 will spool a tick sooner than the Low pressure wheels. I prefer to keep my EGT's cool with the box off, I don't mind a little heat when I have the box on. Most boxes on the 24V get toasty quick anyway. Either the Industrial Injection stuff or the HTT. Both make great products.

I had a 62/12 on my 01 with a set of 130HP injectors and most I would see was 1200 and what was towing 12K. Box was usually turned down though. Never played much with the trailer unhooked. Doug said. The silver bullet is pricey too.

sps64 should work great for you with your setup. call industrial injection and they will recommend the best one. I agree with the responses as the silver bullet I've heard is too laggy on an auto. I love my 62/14, but will likely have to upgrade after I stack a smarty and keep adding :-laf

what do you guys think about a pro street 66 with a 14 housing?

 

[zstroken]

Great charger especially for the $$$. I liked the sled puller for daily driving, but I didn't have any surge issues. Some people complain of it with the sled puller 66. I didn't ahve it. The prostreet 66 is sweet. Friend runs one on his 24V with a set of BD8's, and a redline box.

Does anyone know what size wheels the BD super B has on it? I have posted this question before and nobody seems to know. I have been on BD's forum and they are very tight with technical info there. All I know about it is like most others its based off an s300 frame. Was wondering the same thing about there new super B "Special".

 

[RossA]

how laggy is the pro street 66 going to be compared to what i have now. keep in mind i have a very very loose converter to.

 

[zstroken]

I didn't know DTT made a loose convertor. I beleive the BD is pretty much a s300. It might have improved bearings. so that means it is like a 58 mm inducer wheel.

Wouldn't that make it similar to an Aurora 2000?

i love love love my SPS 62/14 but for you it sounds like the 64/14 will be a better fit. . great turbos in my opinion.

yeah i am kinda leaning towards a 66/14. i am haveing way to many issues with my egts right now and i really want the top end power. either way i am going with a 66 or 64 .

The 66 will run hotter under all conditions except full throttle. The 64 will provide more everyday power than the 66... . We recommend the 66 size turbos for guys who are pretty much looking for all out performance and are willing to sacrifice everyday driving for this. Also based on your mods the 64 will support your HP level no problem.

So how would this work on a 5sp?



Sorry to threadjack here, but what would you guys recommend for me? Its a daily driver, like to street race, and plan on sled pulling. Oh, and I tow my 1500lb mower around too . I was thinking a 64/14 with low pressure wheel?

 

[CHolman]

RossA; SPS 64... .
