now that you throw sled pulling in there its a whole nother ball game ... s465 74/83 .9t4 is gonna be your best bet now. can be driven on the street, legal for pulling, and can tow but it will get hot if you don't keep your rpms up.

As a single?

Why would you say to run a s465 instead of say the silverbullet 66? I value your opinion and just would like to hear your reasoning....

yes as a single, reason I changed my mind is you want to sled pull. The s400 base chargers have a bigger stronger shaft than the s300 base. They hold up to the abuse much better than the s300's will.

Sled pulling is probably on the bottom of my list tho. I just want a fun and fast truck that i can play with. What would the spool up of the s465 be compared to the sb66? What about streetability?

close to the same as SB66 slightly slower.

What do you want to do with this truck? you have changed your mind several times in this thread

It will mainly just be a fast street truck. By the time i can afford this turbo it will be retired from towing duty anyway so that is not a big deal. It wont be a designated sled puller either but it will likely see up to three pulls per year but it would not be for points, just for fun. So less performance here wont be an issue either. Same with drag racing, it will see very limited track time too. So basically im looking for the fastest spooling turbo that can support around 750 hp for a street truck. Im thinking a cam might be worth the money if I go with a big single. I dont know what keeps drawing me to the silver bullet 66. I guess because its 2.6 class legal, supports my power goal, has an amazing sound and comes with a shiney compressor housing. (Who doesnt love shiney things???? ) Sorry for changing my mind so often but I hope this clears things up? So my question now is pretty much, is this the right turbo for me? Is there anything I can do to help it spool up better? What injectors would be best (brand and size....was thinking maybe DDP stage 4????)

you sure that sb66 is 2.6 legal ... many of them fail tech for 2.6

No I would be lying if I said that I knew for sure. But it would mainly just be brush pulls so if I do fail inspection then its no big deal. My only concern is what would my setup have to be in order to spool this turbo on the street?
