I'm not very knowledgable when it comes to turbos so I'm lookin for a little help. I'm going to upgrade in the next few weeks just tryin to figure out which one to buy... Cost is obviously an issue with the damn $5 diesel!

Anyway I would like to break into the 500hp club. I run a few sled pulls a year (like less than 6), a few runs down an 1/8th mile track up the road, but mostly just driving around is what I do with it... Usually empty, pull a few small trailers a year, but no big towing to speak of.

I've been looking at an II SPS62....

But then found some good prices on super B's...

The claim is that a BD super B is a 450hp turbo. Is that correct? Could it be pushed to 500 with enough fuel, or will it simply not pump enough air? Is it a 450hp turbo running hot or is that running around 1300* on the pyro?

My lil HY with the blocked waste gate see's 38lbs and heats me up to over 1600 with just the drag comp now, so obviously I need to upgrade the turbo before I add anymore fuel....

Thanks!
 
i know a little white dodge that did 870hp on a super b special with a little giggle juice.
 
The II SPS 62 is awesome. I would give a 64 a try though. With fueling upgrades that 62 lights as quick as a 35 does. I always like to have a little room for more fuel if i decide to. Then dont have to change chargers again!
 
How much diff is there between the special and the regular super b?

What's it make on #2 only?

When I called II they recommended against the 64 on a 24v....
 
I like my special and its a daily driver and from what i know its rated at 575hp and i made 650hp on the dyno on #2 only

I don't think you can wring out any more power than that with a 64mm charger. The 24V helps, I only did 610ish on my Silver Bullet 66 pushing it hard with my 12v.

and then almost doubled the HP with a teeny tiny shot of gas.
LOL
 
dont confuse the regular super B (57/65/12?) with the "special"(64/71/14?) not sure on the spec but two very different(hp) turbos.

That's the first time I've seen the specs on a Super B. Are those correct?

But I still have the question as to what a Super B (not a special) can truly support for HP on a 24v... Is 450 about the MAX it will support or will it run up closer to 500 with the right sticks, and running a little hot?

I think red stroke is just talking about hp levels on #2 only. Thats all I like to use.

i understand that. i will get the true numbers but i do know for sure he was over 650 on #2 with the special and then did the 870 with the gas.

Those are the specs I have been able to find and are still heresay but all I have to go one. I ran an HTBG with the same specs, and it was REAL toasty @ 425hp. Spool is good. the small wheel and housing are a definite limiter on the top end. If I could do it again on a DD I would just go 62/14 and be done with it.$.02
