300/200's stock bottom end.

[Magnum PD]

Nah I've been around. Just been so busy lately with work and family stuff that I haven't posted much.

I've been listening to Glenn Beck so much I don't know what to think.

I just picked up a set of 300/200's not long ago, and just waiting to get ahold of some misc extra stuff, but I've been stuck on which turbo to run with these sticks. I was thinking a s472 or something smaller like a 468. Just curious what you guys have done and what worked best all around.

 

[97stoker350]

My 468 is awesome. Sacrifice some spool up and get a 75 for more power

A 468 is pricey, but it just seems to be the perfect all-around charger for these trucks. I'm saving my pennies for one, although i'll prolly end up finding a deal on something else and never get a 468. LOL

I ran a S468 and love it still spools great and makes plenty of power no experience with a s472 but the s468 supposedly outflows the s471 cast wheel. Overall i am very pleased with the turbo and makes a great street setup.
If your looking for more top end power add some oxygen replacement :evil

Most of my driving is on back country roads as well. So the 475 I'm thinking would b way to laggy

 

[97stoker350]

What would you consider a cheap turbo that will last longer than 20000 miles with 300/200s? A 66 is cheap but it sure won't last with those injectors turned up. And compared to garret turbos its relatively cheap.

My 68 spools better than my h2e did with 238s can't wait to get my 300s

I'm running a 38r right now with stock sticks but I know it wouldn't be able to handle the 300/200's

 

[smokinstroker92]

I ran a 38r and 300/200s for about 10k miles

It would if the tuner pulled the fuel off quite a bit (as well as other changes) and you didnt just beat the living crap out of it,. But no I dont think it would last at all if the injectors were turned up to their full potential and you beat on it. Its all in the tuning... and the control of the right foot for the most part imo.

I hear ya there, i have gearhead tunes now, I'll probably go with his tunes for the 300/200's. I have a forged rod 10k motor at my house but I wanna run these sticks so bad, I might just throw them in the pmr motor in my truck now, after I get a new hpop and fuel system and just play with that for a little bit until I can afford a t-4 kit

Yup that'll work. I'm runnin 300/200s right now with Matts tunes on my pmr motor with a stock turbo an hpop until I get the rest upgraded. Runs fine, only reason I went ahead an got the big injectors is because i had a few that were bad so jus went ahead an got the ones I wanted. I did put my fuel system on for extra security for the new injectors.

I wouldnt see why that would be a problem. Gearhead has his tuning pretty spot on and should be able to make both the turbo and motor live. He seems to be the best at keeping pmr motors together. I loved my old setup when i had pmrs until i swapped a forged rod motor in. Why not go ahead and swap the forged motor in?

 

[bruce]

yeah the pmr engine is worth a lot more with the rods still in it. i sold mine for a lot more than the forged rod engine that replaced it cost me

I will at some point, for ease of installation I wanted to get the t-4 up pipes nd everything on before I put the motor in. Just acquiring parts first so I can throw everything in all at once.

Like Bruce stated PMR motors are worth alot more with the rods still in js. That being said its not much worse if any putting the t4 kit on in the truck. You cant put the motor in with the turbo on and that is the hardest part imo.

But i believe with gearhead tunes you will be fine either way

 

[David N]

Yeah don't be a dumba$$ like me and blow a perfectly good PMR motor that I could have sold for $1000+.
