The BASB Turbo that Bell builds is a low spooling, low EGT bad ass towing Setup.
the KC TURBO is rebuild able.. unlike the 38r ..and has the billet wheel on it and has better numbers. less boost lag ..everything that the 38 r was lacking .the kc pretty much addressed ..been doing ;A LITTLE RESEARCH ..LOL .BUTT they are still testing ..AND IF U LOOK ..IT IS CHEAPER ..IN THE RIGHT SPOT ..

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
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.

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 thought you had stepped them up?

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...

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

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

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.
