7.3 towing power

TyCorr · Apr 18, 2016

Yea. Just at low throttle input after 65mph its fine...55-65 if you are cruising if you hit a hill and try to hold speed it'll come up 100-200 deg. Didnt do it before the wheel.

The BASB Turbo that Bell builds is a low spooling, low EGT bad ass towing Setup.

Who in here is crazy about billet wheels in 38r? Raise your hands!

I have one, my hand is down.

That wheel sucked azz on my truck too, it was an immediate difference when I put the stock wheel back. It was nice at WOT but this isn't a puller so...
it smokey pulling my rzr around on a 16' trailer

Just swapped back to the stock wheel. Much better bottom end power. Very noticeable power increase when towing.

On a side not, I have a WW2 for sale! Anyone???

Same results here, one of the only mods I regretted and went back on

The 6x6 wheel was superior in my 38r to the 11 blade billet wheel.
My brother in law put a new KC38r turbo in his excursion with FF 180/80's. That turbo is flat out awesome. He's got the 1.0 housing. It's better than my 38r ever was.
And I'm not hating on my 38r, it was a nice turbo.

What difference can you tell with a little a code and an 80% nozzle?

What's different about the kcr?

I believe since our trucks are setup similar we had similar results. Im gonna try some GH tunes with my 250/200s before I ditch it for the stocker.

Did you ever try the billet wheel with your 238/80s?

I do have 238/80s now, but I put the stock 38r wheel back before I got the injectors. I sold that wheel shortly after I removed it

Got ya...i was gonna try it with 33s and stock suspension. I took the rear apart first. 3.5" pmf block and 4 leaf rear sd springs (3k lb rating), put the tires back on and its sitting level :doh: either my 6" lift settled a lot or this thing is gonna sit high af...

Dirtclod · Apr 20, 2016

I know in my near future I see a turbo. I'm definitely going with a t4 setup and hopefully stock injectors will hold up for a while. What turbo is recommended with stockers,4" dp,s&b,reg.return pre and post filters hd tranny upgrade? I'll probably either have a php hydra or infinity from dp when I get a new turbo. I don't know a lot about the belle turbos or hofsett. Any recommendation is appreciated

Ive got metric shti tons of fuel its just not a good fit for me for some reason. I don't know if its the 35s and the 3.73 gears. It gets hot. I need to do some other stuff to it before I go back to the stocker. Hell i may try the billet version of the cast wheel. Mines the 11blade single plane wheel as well.

ahhh, whitey has 4.10s on near stock tires.. biggest i have ever ran on her where 285/75/16s

live life full throttle

god bless america and the farmer who feeds your fat ass

Yea, that makes a huge difference. I like a bigger tire, especially on a 4 spd as it makes each gear longer.

I like the 6 spds but unless you keep it stock it makes no difference for me. I can run way over the speed limit at 2k rpm. Just need to address that hot spot. I had a tow tune through Bill@php thst was grwat but it was for stock fuel.

I'm on X codes and stock block out back, I think I want to go back up with it

Well, i put a 3 1/2", 2.5° taper block on my back end and the 4 leaf rear spring pack (whatever code it is) and it sits level with the front end of my old setup. Which is a 2000 model 6" skyjacker leaf spring lift. Im not super happy at the moment. I guess I should have got a 2" ***kin block. Here i was worried about the 35s and im gonna be airing them sonsabitshes out still.
