Running a bht3b as a single?

lengelhardt · Aug 22, 2014

Does anyone have any thoughts on this I have a new bht3b laying around and am either going to use or sell it cause it takes up a lot of space. I have 250/100 injectors. I think it would be to big but what's your thoughts.

Doubt it would work for a street truck. Be too laggy.

Better than a stock charger with a 1.15 housing with that much fuel. Lol.

I'm really tempted to try it now any opinions?

I'll second this opinion, it's going to be laggy

Would suck trying to spool that with a manual transmission. Would probably need a spool valve.

An HT3B on a 7.3?? Hmmm a T6 turbo intended for the Big Cam cummins back in the mid 80s?? T6 flange to start, big exhaust side, big compressor side, maybe some 400/400s might spool it hard enough quick enough with a cam and some head work, but thats alooot of charger for a 7.3 to run on the street...

I had the idea of trying to find a tight exhaust house fir it but I don't think there's much for options for this charger.

Call you're local turbo shops and see if they'll trade for an H2E?? Then you'd be closer to a T4 setup, I've done some horse trading with turbo/fuel shops as sometimes they do core exchange towards products you need, with those a 250/100s an H2E would be nice compliment to them...
