Drop in batmowheel

[05chevy]

Last time I talked to dustin from diesel addiction he said when they first came out with the wheel u could buy them but.now u have to buy the complete turbo.

Unless something has changed since they first came out, you can't get wheel to drop in your 475. You have to buy a complete turbo.

oh damn, really? can you do jsut a billet wheel?

 

[Dirtymaxx03]

yeah they have a drop in billet, but everything i've heard says you gotta buy a complete batmo turbo if you want the batmo wheel

 

[Dozerboy]

Defiantly not pulling the turbo for that little of a gain.

What is the difference between a billet and batmo wheel? Why can a billet be a drop in replacement and batmo not?

Bullseye claimed they were trying to cut down on copies of the wheel design by not offering just the wheel.

If you ask my opinion there giving people a reason to copy the wheel, or just never buy a charger from them, especially if they just bought a charger before the wheel came out (I heard that complaint from a couple guys).

everybody who is concerned about "over boosting" the turbo;

boost does not kill turbos, excessive turbo rpm does.

you guys should look into turbo speed sensors

There is a better reason why the wheel is not a drop in lol....

Maybe BE will say, maybe not.

If there is they should have used that as there excuse, instead of the bs line about people trying to copy the wheel.

Bullseye wants to sell turbos not wheels. Thats pretty much what I was told.

Thats what there actions and responses to people interested in a drop in show. I'm not saying there isn't a legitimate reasoning they don't sell just the wheel, but it sire seems like there uninterested in selling just the wheel.

What if you already have a bit of shaft play and you wanted to replace the wheel?

 

[MarkBroviak]

that looks good :thumb:

I bet the dealers can get the BMWs separate if they build turbos

Nope, I still have to buy the whole charger like everyone else and I think it is worth it! All my guys think so and the results speak for themselves!:thumb:

 

[Timmay208]

hopefully gonna be trying one these out soon and doing some dyno comparisons along with it

X2, i put one in, but now i just need to buy a data logger, got too much going on to watch the gauge... it has a recall, but you never know if it was a spike off the line or what. I wonder how much a bw can spin before it takes a crap...

You'll have to get the standard billet wheel.

Are you guys saying that you can't purchase a batmowheel for a stock turbo? A guy on the duramaxforum just got his in the mail.

 

[03_DMAX]

Yes, you can purchase them separate for stock turbo. Call mark at danville performance

 

[LWATSON]

Sorry about that, I forgot the discussion was about stock chargers.
