Question D-tech turbo \ Fireball injectors

Im new to the bomers, was wondering if any one is running the 150 Fireball injectors ? I was also wondering about the D-tech turbo do they make the fatshaft in a 64/14 and is any one running one ? Thanks for the help.

Diesel Power Source makes a DTech Turbo in 62/65/14 and a 64/65/14. We have serveral customers running Fireball Injectors. Turbo20psi is running Fireball 150's and a Phat Shaft Turbo.

I heard negative things about the d tech turbos. I talked to one of the guys at alligatorperformance.com (when i was in the market for a turbo) who said that they are made in china and have a tendency to melt down under moderate competition type applications. He said there is poor consumer feedback, and many many returns to the manufacturer. Plus, apparently you cant understand what they are saying if you do have to call the manufacturer.

I have Fireball 65's, and I love them! 7 holes, instant starts, does not smoke on winter days when fired up, very smooth. If I keep the needle at about 105km/h, I can get 25MPG.

Turbo20psi, it sounds like you are satisfied with the fireballs and your 64/14. I have the super b special which is also a 64/14... Are you happy with the spooling? Do you tow? I have 150 jammers and im looking to reduce my egt's and pick up some spool time by going with a better injector. What max egt at WOT do you see?

I am happy with the spool time(note I have a cam in the truck to).I do tow sometimes its not much weight 6,000 pounds.The max egt I remember seeing was 1500 degrees WOT edge drag comp set on kill,pump tapped before cam install.
