Turbo????
 
Ok so im trying to make some decisions on a charger. I cant make my mind up on what i need. I plan on buying some sdx 5x.014's, and their competition delivery valves for fuel. I cant decide what to do with my charger. I have a good line up on a super B but i am not for sure with my knowledge if it would be enough flow for me. I havent ever had the money to play with chargers so my experience is very little so im just looking for some insight from someone a little smarter and more years under their belt. Thanks in advance

what are your power goals? IMO for the money there are way better choices than a super b

BRE 01-13-2011 09:33 PM

Well i dont necessarily have a power goal. That may sound silly but i dont have a number. The super B is my best friends and he is letting it go for a decent price if i want it. Thats why i am asking if that will do or if i need to just wait and save some more money up or possibly cut back on my fuel wants and stick with the super B.

nah keep the fuel to her you'll be kicking your self for detuneing it.

BRE 01-14-2011 01:25 PM

Well its all stock parts for now except a stock replacement injector so i gotta make up my mind. I have had my mind set 5x.014's and delivery valves so what do you think will work well with that? Possibly something like a 62-68-13? Im just trying to go off what i have read to learn about things so forgive me if i sound dumb.

Farmboy 2.0 01-14-2011 01:30 PM

62/65/12 I think would be a great turbo or something along those lines would be nice

BRE 01-14-2011 01:47 PM

Scott sorry for dumb questions but obviously that charger will like that much fuel since your since your about 30x's smarter than i ever will be.

12valvetater 01-14-2011 01:50 PM

I'd go with a 63/74-12.

Farmboy 2.0 01-14-2011 01:55 PM

Yeah it would like that one would, or even up to the silver 62's (62/74/14) would be a nice set up as well it would run cooler but be a bit more laggier on the bottom end IMO.

94 12valve 01-14-2011 02:24 PM

just a street truck turning 3k I like the 62/68 choice or if you can live with a little lag the 74 wheel was my favorate turbine for an s300.

BRE 01-14-2011 02:31 PM

Dave i have my 4k's just not in the truck and when the fuel and turbo got added i would be putting them in if that changes anytthing. What do you think on an exhuast housing? Should i stay with a 12 or would i be happier with a 14 in the long run?

12valvetater 01-15-2011 03:48 AM

Depends on which turbine you decide to go with. I like a big, free flowing wheel and a tight housing.

wes-cummins 01-15-2011 08:58 AM

how much does your buddy want for the super b? that might not be to bad if the price is right, even if it isint the best one to run?

dave whats the best housing to run for a truck with stock governor springs? im going to have to get a new turbo for my truck cause mine is going bad, and i am not sure wheather get 12 or 14 exaust housing

Hightech_Redneck 01-15-2011 11:00 AM

13s are a good housing, 14s are better than 12s to me IMHO.... i have a 16 on my truck so i cant say that laggy aint me...

BRE 01-15-2011 02:37 PM

Well my friend is willing to let the super B go for 600 for me and i dont have any exact numbers but i know the turbo isnt that old and doesnt have a huge amount of miles on it. It was probably on the truck no more than a year. And correct me if im wrong but a super B is a 57-65-12 correct? Im really leaning toward the super B because of money, but Im unsure with my experience and knowledge if it will be able to support my fuel plans.

12valvetater 01-15-2011 03:01 PM

It can always be upgraded in the future.

BRE 01-15-2011 03:17 PM

Thats my thinkings but my ole truck is in need of some sticks bad and i only wanna buy once and im kinda set on some bigger ones and dont know if the Super B will like that.

you would be fine with either, if you plan on twins later on I would go with the 14.

free flowing turbine housing that doesn't choke it is a better choice IMO

super b is a 57/65/12 or 14 cm, and no that charger really wont support a whole lot of hp.

BRE 01-15-2011 04:02 PM

I dont plan on twins. Im a single kind of guy for some reason. So im still up in the air.. I may have to stick with less fuel and just stick to a smaller budget for now it looks like. Oh well! lol

monster12valve 01-15-2011 07:11 PM

what about a 62 or 64/65/12 dtech ? not expensive but can still move some air:humm:

BRE 01-15-2011 07:32 PM

Heck i dont know! Im no scientist and there are too many choices...
