Turbo an injector combos

reid134 · Nov 12, 2014

So, im wonder what a good size bw turbo would be to go with 300/200s. My thoughts were an s472 or an s475. But im not certain on what I should get

I know ill need all the supporting mods, im not worried about them.

Thanks in advance

Also, where should I send my business to for order up pipes?

We have done several combos of our 300/200's with the s467 turbo. Great street manners. Great dyno #'s.

really?? I was thinking that was small. I know that a lot of guys are runninf 468s with 250/200's. And that the characteristics of the 467 are somewhat different. But I want to make sure it stays clean too

Currently im not driving the truck too much anyways.

The 467FMW will do exactly what you need it to do. It is a fantastic all around turbo that we have used multiple times with stock injectors all the way up to 300/200s. Spools great and has awesome manners.

Similar flow to the 472 with quicker spool. The 75 is going to be a fun turbo, but not much of a PERFECT daily driver. Some will argue, but even at sea level it isn't a turbo you can just MASH on and have it respond instantly...

Alright, what exhaust a/r should I be running, too?

Derek@Vision Diesel · Nov 12, 2014

1.0-1.10 depending how you want to use it.

reid134 · Nov 12, 2014

Probably run a 1.0 then for quicker spool on the street. Not to mention its currently a zf5..

So I need the turbo and the up pipes and everything. Anybody specific I should go to?

Irate is really you only option, s468 is what you want and with a handshaker i'd go .90 exhaust housing. whether its new or used. I'd look in the classifieds for a few weeks before I jumped into buyin brand new.

Just seeing who wants to sell me the irate kit..

Irate is the most common and easiest option. If you like to look at different alteratives, Carson Stauffer makes a nice T4 kit, and a new vendor is now making the former Turbonetics mount kit available. The former Turbonetics kit (cant recall new vendor name) is the cleanest most factory T4 I've looked at.
Don't get the idea I think something is wrong with Irate's product, just I like to look at different ideas while I'm waiting to be able to do something.

reid134 · Nov 12, 2014

Amen to that. Thats why I havent pulled the trigger on buying one yet.

How do I find carson and that other kit? Just out of curiosity, I havent been able to yet

I got a T4i kit. LOL

reid134 · Nov 13, 2014

Hahaha would rather not have the t4i setup

bruce · Nov 13, 2014

DFI is the one who has the kit that looks like the old turbonetics setup.

reid134 · Nov 13, 2014

Well I went with stauffer's. Cant wait to get that put in!

the 1.10 that comes with the 468 works fine with a zf5

Wow that was quick! What features did you like more about Carson's set up? Other than it isn't what everyone else has.... How did you think the overall pricing compared?

reid134 · Nov 13, 2014

I liked that I actually talked to carson on the phone. And that I ordered from somebody with a name and face. He was also willing to explain what all came with, and there was an option to have the ic mounted higher or lower. Also made sure to tell me id need 3 inch intake plenums, which I knew Id need. Then he offered me a set for a steal. Was all over that. Called me back a few minutes later with a price, with it shipped to my door it was cheaper than irates kit with no extras on it.
