Single s480 ???

[twisted stroke]

I am almost ready to start my build and just trying to fig out which turbo I want to run . Weather I want to stick with a s 475 or go with a s480 and if anybody is running a s480 on the street. I will be running duel fueler,100 over tips,rcd intake,colt cam, ported head and work over value tran . The truck is a auto and I have plans of pulling it in a run what u brung class thank u guys

It's also will have .20 over pistons

 

[extreme3807]

No noticeable difference between the two. They both had the same driving manners

It's also will have .20 over pistons

which turbine wheel?

regardless its not going to spool fast. street driving might be a chore? unless it's track only use?

how high is the stall in your converter?

 

[extreme3807]

Turbo lit around 1700 rpm. Street driving was pretty cake, just don't pull out in front of anyone.

Idk I was going to talk to a couple of ppl about the convertor and stall I am going to be running a dpc and u are litting the turbo on the street and I know it's not going to have good street manner ... I have 2 other trucks I drive daily this is going to be a toy I just have to drive the truck to the track to run it in that class .

 

[extreme3807]

Run a .90 or 1.0 housing with a 87mm turbine wheel with a higher stall converter

What kind of power am I looking at having at the wheels ???

 

[extreme3807]

Over 900 on the dyno, track times put it higher though.

 

[brooksfruge]

i would think you should go with a ball bearing charger to help spoolup, you should take a look at super08duty(coltons) build thread, from what ive heard he was able to drive it on the street with the right tune

 

[twisted stroke]

I thought they was making 900 with a475 ??

 

[extreme3807]

Correct. I personally believe the 80 will make around the same as the 75. I never dyno'd the 80 so I can't confirm that, but from daily driving it and the track, they both felt identical as far as power being put down.

 

[twisted stroke]

We'll I have a 475 with a 1.10 housing I could go with a smaller housing I should just stay with that then ???

 

[extreme3807]

Yes sir, smaller housing and the 75 will be just right

 

[twisted stroke]

I also wondered about a ball bearing turbo I was waiting to see how his build went and numbers it put down

 

[twisted stroke]

What a .90 housing

 

[extreme3807]

I would recommend a .90 for spool up purposes

 

[twisted stroke]

Ok I think it's a 87/80 also .

Ill be ordering an s480 here within the next month for my build. Same specs as extreme noted.

let me know on converter, ill get you taken care of. i just had a high stall built for colton, we'll see how he likes it with the 80mm garrett he has.
