Which Danville turbo do I have?

[bmr7c]

Truck has a Danville turbo which i was told was a 68stg2r but truck doesn't have that F-16 in kill mode sound to it. What's best way to tell which turbo this is?

Get a caliper and measure the wheel. It might just be a 68mm without the stg2r vanes.

Measure it lol

 

[bmr7c]

I think I'll measure it. Lol. I didn't know if there were other ways to go about it or other characteristics. Thanks guys

Who told you that was a 68 stg2r?

 

[PureHybrid]

Its junk. I'll let you sell it to me.

Guy I got it off. I picked it up for a decent price

 

[Robby05]

Anymore pics of it? What's the backside of it look like?

Yeah I'd just pull it and build a new turbo and sell that one depending on where you are financially. I can help you build a decent turbo system for more efficient boost and longer lasting.

Your making some strong claims here. Mark knows a thing or two about turbos.

Freakin great, we got another "turbo builder" appearing on here. More kts wheels, $50 rebuilds, and krylon.
How bout we just leave the vgt to Mark and everyone else just use that junk for themselves when on a budget. :thumb:

Not really sure what your talking about I was just trying to help the guy its not like I knew mark was the turbo expert on this forum.

Tellin him to measure it was helping. But tellin him to sell it so you can build him one wasn't helping. :thumb:

Not just on this forum, but in general. Mark Broviak holds just about every vgt record there is

^^^ this!

are you running the stg2r vane table? That might be the quickest way to tell. Compare your tune to the stock table if you don't know.

Measuring it will not tell you if it is an R or not. The vanes and vane plate is where the difference is. Measuring will tell you if it is a 68mm obviously. I'm not 100% sure if Mark had the R turbos built around the factory housings. Was really thinking it was only on the 3794-4094 base. That front cover appears to be a stock cover.

Hey all I'm trying to say is if it were me I'd drop it and sell it. Those turbos are OK but not high performance by any means.

Ummm.. you need to find a new forum.. this turbo talk coming from a guy with a cast wheel 6.0 turbo as his avatar
..



Mark / Danville has made more power, went faster with a vgt turbo than anyone.

Not high performance? That 68mm stg2r will do 850hp by itself! I'm gonna be twinning over mine and be pushing 1000hp
