The DTS still has a stock turbine wheel, so you may not benefit from any better turbine flow, but you've been running a stocker for however long as it is, so it may not matter.
The Fleece Cheetah comes with a 63mm billet compressor thats proven to support more horsepower than anything we've tested in its size, plus it comes with a larger 68mm Borg Turbine for better flow over the stock turbine, as well as a Borg Cart for better reliabilty, and a remote oil feed setup to save the #4 Cam journal bearing. There is also extensive machine work done in the turbine housing to optimize flow, for better response, EGT management, and to reduce drive pressure. Its not cheap, but it is the most labor intensive charger as far as assembly in the FPE lineup, and for a drop in replacement, you are getting your moneys worth.

A compound setup is only as good as the high pressure charger can flow, in your specific case, if you have something that spools and drives the same, however it's capable of flowing and moving more air at the same or slower speeds, your going to benefit from it. It will maximize your compound turbo setups potential, and expand on the gains you already experience from the 2nd charger.
If you dont care to further lower EGT's, increase driveablity, and gain some more horsepower and torque, then you may not want a Cheetah! :roflmao:

Ima vouch for the billet 63... It spoiled just as fast and hit way harder than my stock charger on my lly. That charger was Rock solid.. With 60% sticks and fleece tuning we had it at 630 hp on a stock lly cp3.. It's in your budget of 2500 too with the pedestal and all.. Thumbs
those are good results Tommy. A lot of guys with s464s can barely attain that
doubt it was a IHIdang and you just missed a fleece 63 mm billet on here a while ago! i have never run one but this guy that pulls at some of the same places i do had one on his lmm. and let me tell you that thing would run! he would give all the river city diesel diesel boys and their built 6.4 powerstrokes a run for their money.

Stock turbo is starting to show signs of wear and tear, sometime late summer ill probably pull the trigger on a new upgraded one
I know DTS has the 64mm for a damn good price but ive heard mixed reveiws on here about customer service and getting stuff from there.
how does the fleece 63mm do in a twinned setup?
Heres the deal, i DO NOT want to loose any more spool up than i currently have with the stock charger. this means a 64mm is about max of what i can go based on talking with many others about their bigger chargers. I also want a drop in replacement as i do not feel like redoing the hot and cold pipes for my twin kit. i have enough projects right now, i want this simple. Im not goin for all out HP, just figure if im gunna replace it, why not upgrade at the same time. Max i wanna spend is $2500 shipped to my door.
So how is spool up with this charger? anyone you know of thats running as big a tire as i am on stock gears and towing to compare with?
