Anyone that can share their experiences with 60 and 100 overs,
Thanks

I gained 5mph trap going from 83/1.10 to a 87/1.10 with all things the same

Impressive, that's got to be 50HP?

s475?

Where are you guys finding the best place to pick up a s475 87/1.10 ?

 

[hondarider552]

s475?

Yes.

Forced inductions. A 87/1.10 will be laggy I'd go 1.0ar

Yes.

How about a .90; gated vs non gated?

 

[hondarider552]

Try it and let us know. I've never ran a gate.

No need to run a gate imo. You should go 87 instead of 83. My 83 gets kinda hot. I'm pretty sure the 87 runs cooler plus it's better if you ever wanna spray. I wish I woulda went with the 87

I dropped 200ish degrees as well going from 83-87 turbine wheel. I think the fastest the 83 wheel went was 128mph.

How fast did the 87 go?

I've daily driven a 75/87/.90 for over 2 years. The .9 is a bit tight for the DMax IMO. My cousin has a 72/87/1.0 on his and it makes boost much easier. It could be that his has 100s and mine 40s, but the turbo just seems to be more free, so to speak. No need for a gate.

Dont waste your money on an 83mm turbine. If you can, try to get the newest comp wheel technology. The TCT chargers from Bullseye are pretty impressive as a single. I've heard good things about the FMW Borg wheel as well.

133.88

 

[mike diesel]

Fack I want an 87 turbine so bad

 

[Noreaster]

If I was going to run a good sized single Id like to try the FMW 476/87

 

[Mikey]

How about an S480; it has a bigger outside diameter comp which makes it heavier and I imagine even slower spool, but anyone try it for a dd and no need for towing? Maybe an S480 with a BD Turbine diverter for DD on the street?

 

[LWATSON]

I know someone that runs a TCT S480 but its on a built engine truck with 100 overs. It lights quicker than my 475 with stock injectors did.

Brian ran a 480 with 100's and some spray...but not sure how much DD he did with it

Interesting
