Default looking for a turbo

I'm looking to up grade my turbo. I'm looking at a BD turbo. Which One?

i have the super b special and i love it. you might need to add some fuel to get it to light up sooner. but the super b is good to. and spools faster

I just put a 62/71/14 from rct inc. on and i love it. Its bigger than a super b but smaller than the super b special. Now all i need is a set of bigger injectors.

Depends on what you do with yer rig.

I think that with the fuel level you are at a "super b" would work great.

If you have that crazy addiction then go a little bigger so you have growing room or.....

better yet but a S400 or HT3B under it and be done playin the turbo game.

I guy can find I twins kit minus the secondary for the price of a new "super b" these days.


Good luck!

a 62mm turbo will be good 125HP injectors and a box are a bit small for a specail 64mm turbo.

125HP would be good for a 62/65/12 or a 62/71/14, the first will spool earlier and is better for towing and daily driving., the second will have more power up top;

I have a 62/65/12 with 110HP injectors and just timing on my adrenaline... it spools nicely, turn the box up and hold on...

Twins would be better with that size of injector. Twins would be better overall actually you could have a set of twins for around $1700. With jkidds twin piping kit and an s400 you would be around that 1700 mark. Which isnt alot more than one turbo.

With my rebates I can beat Dallas Turbos s400


and the cost of $1700 for twins parts is about $500 too high...
