    Differences between 4294 and 4202 and 4202R?

    ^^^x2. Most of the airwerks turbos you will buy for aftermarket have ETT wheels. And S300/S400 twin setup will be awesome and still reasonable in price.

    Differences between 4294 and 4202 and 4202R?

    im very happy with my S472 B/W. They make good stuff and its cheap. Or maybe the others are overpriced. Either way very good stuff, very customizeable and easy to rebuild. Mine is setup with the 83mm turbine wheel (74mm exducer) and a 1.00 A/R housing. I havent had time to see the D/P but...

    LB7: It's all over

    maybe try doing a compression test just as another thing to add to the list. If you dont have a compression gauge and the adapter for the duramax, go to the dealer and ask to borrow thiers. They dont use it much and usually will let you have it for a night or over the weekend if you have a...

    LBZ Engine Build

    i wont be any time soon. I know curtis has a couple sets of them too and guy said hes seen them. Its a good thing i took a second look and called curtis. I can imagine they wouldnt do so well in a production motor and would fail very quickly.

    Im sure this is part of the equation. But if tractor pullers can spin their engines to 7,000RPM when they were designed to make power under 2,000 i dont see why the same couldnt be acheived with other diesels. Granted these tractor are running HUGE 5" inlet turbos many of them using 2 3 or...
