Pro 52 from Holset on a 3rd Gen?

[jwilliams3]

I remember someone posting that they had installed this on their truck.

I am wondering how it is doing and what kind of power it can push.



It has a 71mm Compressor wheel and a 16cm non wastegated housing.



How much does a non-wastegated 16cm flow vs. a wastegated housing?



Any feedback appreciated.

It runs good, It surges when towing and it smokes all the time when stacked but it took a half second off my quarter mile time. Not near as fun as the stock turbo. But it runs way cooler.

i would guess it would be a tad large for a daily driver



But with the fueling ability of a 3rd gen, It seems that the larger turbo are becoming more common, as with J. davy



J. Davy, how are the cruising EGTs?

Tomey,

This will make your Sledpuller 66 look small! :-laf

tomeygun,egt's seem a little higher than the stock one ,usually around 1000 pre turbo at 60 mph. With no fueling mods the turbo runs really well for being as big as it is. I am thinking of going to a second gen ats manifold so I can put a better intake as there is very little room where it sits now. I was thinking of flipping like it like they do in a twin setup and doing a cone style filter off the end . Anyone know of any problems with this idea?

Maybe a super-one-off downpipe

Should work but you might have a little problem with sucking in engine compartment heat into turbo.

if someone comes up with a downpipe that would work with like a ksb1 on a 2ng gen manifold, i'd sure be interested...

How much smaller is the pro 52 than a B2 or HT3B?? I know very little about the cummins, though I'm trying to learn. . The B2 and 3B seem very affordable. . I know they seem to be the norm as the large turbo on twin setups. .
