[ProjecT 9]

Hell I'm learning with you.

You will love the 68 we have it on my brothers truck he tows with it daily drives it with 205s. With tuning proper tuning i would not be scared to pull anything. and it is way stronger than a reg powermax. The 68 is not lagy at all.

How does drive pressure look with that charger? Wastegate recommended?

Does anyone have any hard data, Track times? Dyno numbers? I would be interested if they made significant more power than a power max.

Do they sell the stuff to upgrade the regular Powermax if someone already has one?

The drive pressure is pretty high with like 225s but with 205s we havent had any issue, I would think with 190s its probly about staright up.

headgaskets are toast Marty. Cab's gotta come up anyway....

May be late Feb or so before this gets done. Just getting ducks in a row.

Think you and I are on the same page. I tell my wife the truck will remain stock then I say I broke something and upgrade. LOL

These turbos are interesting to learn about.

My brothers truck did 610 on fue lonly with this charger and 205s, on the street his truck is a beast. Ive seen him tow with my goosneck and a truck on it, and on a tow tune its cleaner than my sct tuned truck. I was impressed to say the least.

gare if you looking for a good turbo you will be impressed with the way it spools and the way it handles on the street.

By just looking at turbo specs the 68mm is bigger than the Elite ssx but they seem to be very similiar in design.

Jake Kelly @ KDP is running one with 225s IIRC - everyone that I know that has been in his truck says it runs awesome. Maybe give him or Matt a call for more info on it.

Didn't he put down some numbers in the 600 range awhile back?

 

[Agjake11]

i was just looking this stuff up an wondering the same things. not wanting to pull offtopic but how bad would running 155's or 185(190's) be with the stock charger really until the powermax would go on?

Is this just a wheel and housing change?

 

[SSpeeDEMONSS]

is the shaft not a problem with the larger wheel?

[Pizza pig]

the shaft in my opinion is fine with a bigger wheel, its the lack of tuning (surging) that kills the shaft from over speeding it.

Josh seems to have the tuning DOWN on that 68mm vgt . But time will tell, that vid is a smokey pig! Laying out some serious numbers though. I'd like to ride in one on the street
