My truck dynos like sh1t. I trap 100+hp more than I dyno lol. Good problem to have, but what I'm getting at is a dyno number doesn't necessarily mean much... At least to me.

What made you pick the 76 so quickly?

why roll with a 71 or 72mm when alot of people tried got good results and tried the 76 got even better results and similar spool up and made even more power.....who wants less power, when you can have more. more is better. would you want a girl with A cups or the girl with nice full C cups or D cups.....personally i'd choose the C cups or D cups, the girl with the A cups is getting looked over. she's probably fun, but the other two choices are better!

Depends how much money you have whether you can afford the a cups or c cups.

My vote is with the 75/59 RCD combo. Proven on several trucks to make big power. We use them and have good results. Awesome spool for a large turbo and the 77mm turbine on the 75 makes it light and stay lit (no surge at light throttle). The 76/59 elite/precision and 75/59 RCD are both quality and I doubt there is little if any power difference. Just comes down to preference. At the point they are at, the housings are becoming the restriction.

Haha. Wrong part of the body for me to care on comparison there. :thumbsup:



If there's Ds with no azz and As with a nice azz, Im taking the As everytime. Maybe the As and Ds comparison can be for the VGT?


I was actually meaning why the 76 so quickly over the 75? Im switching to a 59/75 sometime in the next few weeks.

I like your style.....


On turbos that is.....


Well and the other part too.....


The cup size only gets you so far, a good built bottom end is where it's at!

With the rcd 75/77mm set up do people still run wastegates to keep drive pressure down?

I've always been a precison fan, was originally thinking I'd just go with a 72 but after thinking about it and talking with some friends I want to go ahead and go a little bigger.

as long as I know I can get ahold of the 76 but sounds like it shouldnt be a big deal.

Glad to hear no objections

personally I'm more of a built bottom end guy myself, I just figured most guys would relate the to the top end. but either a 75mm or 76mm is the way to go for stock appearing housing. the 71mm and 72mm were also good options back when that's all we had, but now we can have our cake and eat it too, so why not....:rockon::toast: more turbo is better if you plan to grow, if you don't plan grow past the 71 or 72mm's capabilities then by all means go with one of those, but i'm not sure any of us can just stop 650 or 700whp and leave the rest of it "stock"

Doing the testing I have between precision's wheels and competitor's wheels, I'm going to disagree.

Precision wheels of the same size normally make a good bit more power than the competition. Making assumptions based on this, I will go out on a limb and say there is a good bit more power to be had with the 76 over RCD's 75.

I do agree that they are both quality turbos, but to say there is little or no difference in power with no data seems silly.

862 fuel with a 71 elite drop in on 60% nozzles. Setup did 11.90 at 114 in the 1/4 as well at 8500 lbs. Puts numbers at 850 or so. My nozzles were made with love and the air was filled with Jager and bud light so it led to really nice numbers haha

Thanks
I will agree with that ^^.
Honestly there are better deals out there, sounds like his chargers work very well though. I'm over the butt dynbo ish, whatever I get will be put on the dyno back to back to compare the gain over stock charger on stock fuel.

Precisions make power, and if the extra money can be spent then it is a no brainer - keep me updated dawg!

Besides the Jager this is a great example of why you are my #MCM
