in your sig it say's"super b single".it's probably bd's version of the borg warner s300.with supporting mod's it might not be that healthy for a stock auto

the super B isn't currently on my truck becuase it was fried when my truck lost oil pressure (can be rebuilt though) but i am debateing on putting it back on or just leaveing the one they installed on it. any suggestions also i understand the the stock tranny isn't very good thats my next project, to many other project and not enough money right after christmas. im just happy to have my truck back.

would well either one i guess you really prolly went to far on performance for now bec. IMHO i would have worried about the tranny first its no good haveing all that power and not being able to use it all bec. of weak links i think that if you cant afford a new trans i would at least put in a shift kit and converter for now that is if you plan on waiting awhile for the trans

ok without pissing anyone off, but i would just like to know a little about this turbo, it wasn't my decision to put it on the truck that was the shops as my warranty is paying for the rebuild. if they wasn't paying it would have got a stocker put back on it for the mean time. the super B i got at a good price long ago with some stuff i bought for my powerstroke before i ever owned a dodge.

i would really like to know a little about this turbo. thanks

From what I can tell it is an s300 like lilcowboy23 said. You might want to check this out to find out more about your turbo Selecting the best turbo for your application is a matter of choosing the right turbo for your intended power level and your intended .

Borg Warner Airwerks S300G
did a search by part number and found that. Think it is basically the same as the bd.

The #174430 is the same turbocharger as a BD Super B Single, 57/88mm compressor 65/74mm turbine.

s300g 174330 is same s300 turbo, but BD tweaks a few things (like the WG actuator) on it so the fitment is better.
