New BD turbo setup

08BIGRIG · Aug 9, 2014

Seen these this week and these seem to be pretty darn nice for the buck. I know there are LOTS of vendors on here selling BD products and what I like about them is that you can get them really quickly 95% of the time. There is no waiting for months on end for your turbo setup and such which drives people nuts including myself. Imagine what this industry would be like if you could just call and get any parts that you would need and have them to your door step in a few days even if you did have to pay a little more for them. From what I hear, BD has some really big things coming up for the industry. Glad to see another option.

I have been a BD distributor since 2005 and honestly it's an awesome thought but BD stocking stuff has dropped substantially over the years. It used to be you could order and it was always in stock but now many times they cannot give us a delivery date and we wait weeks or even months for product. I truly believe it's just the nature of our economy and the product demand, other big companies like Aeromotive aren't stocking stuff either, they have components but everything is built to order.

No i am not. I have been running a set of my workstock compounds since May 2013 after DPC

Just installed them on my 08 last Monday. Long story short pulling the cab to replace. Broke shaft. WTF. Hope they didn't **** anything else up. Sure inter cooler is shot.

08BIGRIG · Aug 10, 2014

So you put a new set on and blew them up right away?

eastern · Aug 10, 2014

Yup . Went to pulls Friday and boom broken shaft. I will post picks and video Monday

Is that a record? Fastest time in smoking a new set of turbos?

eastern · Aug 10, 2014

Hopefully the next set I get more than a week lol

That's to bad.
They looked pretty well made when I saw them in person.

AllGo'N'Show · Aug 10, 2014

Sub'd to see how eastern makes out on the next set.

08BIGRIG · Aug 10, 2014

I know that BD will take care of you with the turbos as they stand behind their stuff pretty well. I know someone with two sets of turbos for testing right now and they are MUCH larger than these as well. Hope you have better luck with the next set bud.

I am sure they will take care of it. Drove truck all week and loved them. Just sucks I am sure there is other damage as well as having to lift cab again. Ordering an intercooler as we'll pretty sure that's junk.

08BIGRIG · Aug 10, 2014

Why is the intercooler junk?

I haven't looked. But how cheap are these?

Because it would take a lot to beat the 72/59 billet charger setup we sell @ $2748 with a proven track record from a reputable company and site sponsor.

Not being an ass, just wondering what the allure to them was?

08BIGRIG · Aug 10, 2014

Morgan these are 58.5/73 with both chargers getting billet wheels. They are sold by vendors for $2750. Its just another option out there for the 6.4l guys and I know that BD is sold widespread by lots of vendors on here.

As far as how they compare and such to what is out currently, I have no idea. I personally have never tested them but think its nice to have another option.
