Turbo question

Hey I'm planning a turbo upgrade in the future and was looking at a bd diesel killer b but my question is what turbo is that based upon. I'm a heavy duty mechanic and can rebuild a turbo any day so I'd really rather save some money and just buy a used one from an equipment or truck wrecker. Does bd do anything special to them?

So could I put a blow off valve into my intake system and just run a remained s300?

a blow off valve and waste gate have nothing to do with each other.

They both limit boost...

uh no. waste gate limits boost by bleeding drive pressure off. blow off valve dumps all pressure instantly.

again NO. blow off valve only opens when you let off the throttle, usually from a pressure differential between the top and bottom of the bov head.
