38r BatMoWheel Update

[Wicked]

I understand putting one on a 38r, but am I the only one that doesn't see why you'd spend the investment like that on a stock turbo?

Honestly if I knew now what I know now I think my perfect setup would be:

-Van turbo with EBPV delete, batmowheel, and ATS housing... completely rebuildable
-180cc Stage 2's with 100% nozzles
-910 springs + hardoned pushrods
-SRP1 pump
-RR and just one walbro fuel pump

No need for studs and won't eat up your engine... even with running on your hottest tune 24/7 when not towing.

It is an expensive wheel for a stock turbo but I would only do it if the above setup was going to be my only setup I would ever run.

All I know is that if I can get anywhere near your numbers with my new setup, even with the batmowheel I will be a happy guy LoL

You Got one? I'll have to check this out when you get it . Lmk Travis

I understand, but damn the shaft and wheels on the stock turbo are just sooo small.. the s366 is comparable to the 38r as close as a journal bearing turbo can get for $500 less, and that seems like a more logical turbo to release a batmowheel for.. im biased I guess

why do you care? you got a van turbo LOL. Where is doug when i need him?

 

[SouthFlstrokin']

Cause I want to know how the wheel affects everything.

I've been wondering the same also, I need him to check out my truck...

I agree...nobody else seems too...

 

[Lowdown89]

I'm only trying one out, because I don't have the funds to swap to a t4 mount and turbo.... I know I could pull it off and sell it and and be pretty close to what it would cost me,but since I already have the 38r I wanna see just how much I can get out of it

Some of us have smog inspections/tests to pass

That's what I'm hoping, have you ran your truck at the track? Your setup seems pretty close to what I'm after

 

[MadDiesel73]

Nah I'm too scared to break something.. Lol it's my work truck too.

 

[juniort444e]

MadDiesel, where did you have your motor work done at? And do you see a difference with matts cam?

Cant wait to see the differences between the reg 38r and batmos 38r.

Got my wheel today... To bad my engine is still not here... maybe Wednesday or Thursday...

How is everyone installing these... It just came with a sheet of paper to torque it down to 170-200 inch/lbs with a drop of blue loctite. The turbo is currently off the truck (no engine in yet)... should I take it to a performance shop and have them do it or should I just shoot it off/on with and impact gun like I did with the Wicked Wheel on the stock turbo.

Oooh pretty.
