Drop in batmowheel

[whytry]

Dont forget to look at the entire dyno sheet.. its very good over all... every body just looks at peak numbers.... tis tis the tq gain on the bottom end is great and spool up is also good the increased spool up will help clean up the smokey take off of a stock charger on a max effort style tune

I am real interested in this. I have seen someone say up to 200 degree drop in EGT. That would be worth it to me. Drive pressure is an interesting question.

My prayers have been answered :roflmao: ive been running with an ate up compressor wheel for about a year now

 

[Dozerboy]

I think for only $400 it doesn't sound like a bad mod of guys that want to keep the VVT. How hard is the wheel swap?

 

[05chevy]

i want to know if you can just pull the bridge down pipe and compresser housing and do the wheel swap instead of pulling the whole turbo

 

[cafryer]

Ive done wheel swaps on my s300 still in the truck if that counts

 

[gmduramax]

Mark said the whole turbo needs to be removed. I ordered one for my dads LMM.

 

[Fingers]

You have to remove the turbo to get the compressor cover off on the stock charger.

how hard is it to install? how long does it take? any special tools required? im doin mpi twins and big dipper 45overs in 2 weeks and would like to do this also if its something that isnt hard to do.

no need to re-balance ?

 

[MuscleTruck03]

Anyone have a link? I want to check this out more

X2. Seems like something spinning that fast would have to be balanced correctly.

 

[Fingers]

Spool and compressor are balanced independently. The clocking of the compressor wheel on the spool shaft is not fixed.

I want to know how well this would perform with twins? If I could get my s480 to light quicker with that wheel than it would be game on.

We can try a bigger tune as well your only running a 1900 pw iirc have you run your truxk at the track yet?

 

[DIESELMAFIAPER.LB7]

Might try this on my Turbo if they make 64mm wheels

 

[Cap'n Willis]

It's only a 400 dollar upgrade? Are you kidding me? That would be no question about it.. I was in the market a month ago, before i got a batmo s475.. And I priced Around 2500 from mark for a billet wheel upgrade.. That came with custom vanes, and I'm not sure if the internals are not machined down some as well.. I really didnt get that deep into the stock charger mod... But if you can do it all for 400 I wouldn't hesitate.. .

they only sell the replacement comp. wheels by themselves, still making you buy a new turbo if you want a batmo in anything else

 

[kjp800]

Why did you put a LBZ wheel in your LLY housing?

 

[05chevy]

Why did you put a LBZ wheel in your LLY housing?

i think that was all they had at the time could be wrong.

 

[Atouchofgrass]

I've heard nothing but good things about the bat mo wheel on the 6 leakers. I'd love to snag one of these things when my trans is done in the next few weeks!
