Message: [QUOTE="Hotrodtractor, post: 383048, member: 25"] Being devil's advocate here - and I really don't know how this all plays out in the end but - in order to know which compressor wheel is truly flowing more under the same circumstances don't you need to know more about the ambient and intake air temperatures? If the cast wheel makes more boost, but is noticeably hotter - is it really more air? I know I'd like some more info about the whole turbo wheel comparison. There is a whole host of different opinions - some swear by the new wheels - some swear at the new wheels - some just want to make educated choices - and even more want to just follow the new fad. I purchased a batmo equipped charger based on the recommendations from a very well known shop that it would broaden my power curve and add more air at lower turbo shaft speeds (which would be beneficial for lowering smoke and towing at higher power with lower EGTs). I don't know what the outcome of my experiment into this controversial wheel will be - I know I don't expect it to add to my peak power - but I do hope that it performs well at the task I need it to - if it doesn't I'll chalk it up as a learning experience and make sure to tell everyone when I switch to a billet wheel of another manufacturer.
