d tech turbo

[biggreen96]

anybody know anything about these or used one? lookin to get rid of my stock turbo soon and would like some suggestions

[Kronic_187]

i'm running one, i'm fairly happy with it.... its a 62/65/12, spools about 200rpm slower then stock but it hit's like a hammer @ about 12 psi up to 40....

with stock injectors it was a tad sluggish, now with these 140's it's a touch small..... still keeps my egt's around 1400* tho... spent a day or 2 playing with my AFC and wastegate to get that, but they are decent turbo's for the money...

thanks im considering one of them for the price, do you think 90 horse injectors would have any problem spooling it?

90HP injectors (which are usually 5x12's) are pretty much an ideal match for most 62mm turbos.

He was saying with 140's that turbo is a bit small... not enough EGT reduction due to slight over-fueling from larger than ideal injectors.

Most 140HP injectors (usually 5x14's) are usually better with 64mm or larger turbo (or compounds).

how many pounds do you think i could push with a 62?

[Kronic_187]

i've hit 57ish with the wastegate plug'd.... but that was toying around

high boost isn't what your after.... a 62mm compressor is going to be moving a hell of a lot more air then your hx-35 was @ the same rpm


ya i went a bit big on the injectors.... but now i don't have to rebuy... toss a 3b or an s400 under it, get some dv's and some tuning and i should be a happy guy.
