How is the Dodgezilla turbo ?

[M Evan]

Thanks, for your response. One more Q. about housing size. What size you use with your EZ and 275's and is for towing better use smaller or bigger size housing ? Still little confuse with housing sizes, did bigger housing will have more lag or how this exactly work ? Will Dodgezilla fit in place of my HY35 without any problem ? Sorry, for so many Q. , but with so many combinations on market is a easy to get confuse.

Big housing flows more air, takes more air to get boost. That's where lag can come in. That's the reason for wastegated housings. A WG allows you to use a smaller housing for quicker spool, and then bleeds off the excess pressure to keep from overdriving the air at high demand. A 14WG does the trick for me. You can adjust the WG for your level of fueling. Yours would stay closed much longer than mine to make the same amount of boost--because I'm dumping more fuel in.



Some folks run a 16cm without WG, but I think you'd have significant lag with your current level of fuel and no way to adjust for it. (Non WG housings are much cheaper. )



Install. For my application I had to come up with some bolts for the top manifold/turbo flange mating. My stock turbo had studs there. The DZ doesn't. I had to swap the exhaust thingy too, but thats real danged easy and won't be necessary in many cases. Especially if Tim knows exactly what you've got.



Cornfused again?

Confused again? [/B][/QUOTE]







Thanks and let just say, now I em less confuse then before.

I em thinking going with 12 or 14cm non WG housing, I em using turnbuckle all the time anyway. And last confusion will be to decide which size will work better for my application, towing.

14cm wastegated for towing , works perfect

if mach 1. 5 is the largest edm that you plan to go you should be fine.

Okay if you can keep the boost down to where you want it. You'll make more boost with more fuel.



Changing injector size or box/settings will be the only way to control full-throttle boost without wastegate.

What is the safe number for full-throttle boost ? Now my maximum boost is a 30 psi.

40 - 45 psi max
