Well Ive decided to stick with the 58 converter, and the 75/83/.90. Im not going to be sledpulling in 4 low, nor really have a need to throw lots of fuel at it. I can always loosen up the turbine AR down the road. The truck will be 5700 lbs with me in it, so I wont need as much power either. if DP becomes and issue, I'll loosen the AR and then retest, then may get a different charger. Im not ready for a bar in a truck yet, so I think that turbo will be perfect for stock fuel, then some 60's down the road. Thanks for the help! :thumb: All these different converter choices is a bit confusing, so I'll stick with my original game plan. I think the 75/83/.90 will be just fine for what I want to do with the single cab :thumb:
Good luck bra! ill be waiting to hear how it all works out! put a drive pressure gauge on this thing n let us know how she works...
Thats crazy that 2 psi difference makes it launch like a firecracker compared to having moderate lag! I know nothing about sled pulling but on the 1/4 i don't even notice a difference launching between 8-14 psi lol. Just suprising you can actually tell a difference with such a minor amount of boost difference.
I thought the new Mike L goerend convertor was supposed to be a good one for a application such as yours?
Mlg is way to snug on the bottom and all threw the mid range for , large frame turbo IMO, it is very awesome for stockish turbos including stock twins, and small singles though.
I thought the ML G was designed to help spool big compounds? Maybe I misread Mikes post and I've got it wrong.
5:17 mark is a 8 psi launch
5:40 mark is a 12 psi launch
same track, same night, same sled
The larger turbine wheels get kinda touchy once ya getum in their sweet spot!

Damn that truck sounds so perfect! That is really amazing the difference it makes by just 4 psi! I never would have guessed that. It definetly ripped alot better leaving at 12psi:thumb:
Caleb is right, the 87mm doesn't come up as fast as the 96mm did for reason you just said. It's all about the setup and yours is great, congrats!!!
I leave around 30#'s or more at the track and around 20 or so on the street, not that big of a deal
I'm glad to see some good info about the 96. Im going to be running a s483/96 this year for a single I also have some other chargers to test out this year to so I'll be giving some good info out from this testing . Singles FTW:hello:
