upgrade 38r

big johnson · Mar 28, 2012

I have to pull my turbo off my truck because the ebpv is starting to get stuck. So I figured while I have it out I might as well do what I can to get the most I can out of it before the pulling season starts, I was thinking about like a bigger housing and maybe a new compressor wheel but Im not too sure what will be best for me so any input would be great

thinkin bout beans 1.15 housing and a batmowheel

4duggan · Mar 28, 2012

And blank pedistal , Beans might have them too. If not Dieselorings does.

Try Full Force they have the 1.15 housing and batmowheels.

blank pedistal? what does it delete the ebpv?

big johnson · Mar 28, 2012

just looked on full force and it wasnt on the website

4duggan · Mar 28, 2012

Yes and with the 1.15 you will need the adapter where the butterfly valve is now. Beans or Full Force can get them for you. Was one in the classifieds not long ago.

I did not do the wheel upgrade and dont know much about it .

I am running Swamps tunes and injectors and did not have my chip re-burned.

what was the biggest thing that you noticed when you went to the 1.15?

I know you weren't talking to me, but Ill answer anyways...

My back pressure seems to stay in check with the 1.15. I didn't have a gauge when I had the 1.0 housing, but with the 1.15, at 35 psi boost, Im at about 40 psi drive. My gauge is clogged right now, so I need to get some decent readings to post up.

Also, the truck seems to pull harder higher up in the rpm range than it did with the smaller housing.

Over all, I like the housing better than the 1.0. Still spools good too.

Call em up and talk to ryan or matt.

MadDiesel73 · Mar 28, 2012

For your setup keep te stock wheel and 1.0 housing.

big johnson · Mar 28, 2012

is the 1.0 the factory housing? and why not change? Im going to eventually do a full build

MadDiesel73 · Mar 28, 2012

I just put the 1.0 back on mine.. And I don't think the batmowheel was worth it.. But my cam really helps with back pressure and egt's I may be off.

I talked to swamps and he said to get the 1.15 housing but not to get the batmowheel he said they havent heard anything positive yet
