a turbo question

Postby truckwrench1 » Sat Jan 18, 2014 1:45 pm

ok got a QUESTION what is the largest single that will spool the best with a hamilton/colt cam, tuned pump 5x12/5x14 injectors with the m&h timing spacer with close to stock timing. looking for the 450 hp area with decent mannors can live with haze and some smoke.

Trans? Gearing? Tire size?

450hp is going to take a lot of timing and larger than 5x12-5x14 injectors unless some nozzle/pintle work is done.

standard, gearing in th 3.50 range, 16.5 standard size tires dually, nozzle pintle work is ok with me. looking to lay some ground work for a fresh build, may even consider marine pistons.

Marine pistons accompanied with marine angle injectors will make better/more efficient power.

62-63 compressor wheel with a 68-71 turbine wheel will suffice. fyi...I'm running a 62/68 for the 450-500hp goal.

If I had to throw out a turbo/inj recommendation with the little information so far....63/68/.8 with 70-80lpm marine SAC injectors. 64/71/.8 would work as well, but it's not going to have good street manners.

There are major gains in spool ability when putting in a cam. But there is no answer to it, as the given set up will change the benefit of the cam swap.
