Here it is! The Billet "Batmowheel"!

RobH said:
I have a hard time believing people are tying to "copy" this already as you say. There has been no hard data besides a few dyno runs. No side by side comparison to a conventional billet wheel, just cast. I understand this turbo won a big event.. but it didnt break any records correct? What turbo did the fastest truck at the event have? Are people trying to copy it already too? Im not trying to bash the turbo/wheel/cover, maybe its is the new best thing, but as far as just selling it as a whole, thats a nothing more than a sales pitch.

I understand, i wasnt aiming that at anybody here, just hard for me to believe somebody is trying to copy something that is in a few trucks if that? and hasnt made it to the market yet.

It was on one of the heaviest trucks at the race in Braydenton. We'll see what happens if I decided to give my truck liposuction. I also think I have about 24 time slips from that weekend. All with different configurations, all weekend. Maybe a pretty graph on a sheet of paper will be better....

I wasnt bashing your truck or set up either, yes lots of people do like pretty graphs on paper, but that wasnt my point, i dont think anybody has seen something to copy yet i guess. Now mid season if its kicking the competitions ass, on a big number of trucks, i could see it, but now? Not so much. My comment wasnt really directed at the turbo itself, but at the comment its trying to be copied. A lot of people will throw that in there to either make something sound better than it is, or just to make more money.

You do realize there are sled trucks making way more hp then you with a billet wheel 475
I don't know how you can say that a true 66 batmowheel makes more power then a 475.

Exactly what I was thinking. Theres alot more to the power game than just a turbo.$.02
 
Here is the dyno sheet for the S366 Batmowheel

Here is the dyno sheet from an LB7 I built with the Batmowheel S366/74 in a T3 housing. It is a fuel only truck with dual fuelers and 50% injectors and all the normal bolt ons. I will post up the graph on my twin truck also when I can get it. Hope this helps guys.

Comparison on my twins truck.

Here is the difference between the two on my truck as the atmosphere turbo in my twins setup on a stock LBZ with stock injectors so I am not exactly throwing a bunch of fuel at it. Reguardless it was a very nice noticable difference in driveability.

Judging by the comparison graph posted, it looks like it is more of an improvement on lowend flow (a significant one at that). But not much gain up top.
 
Thanks Mark! Looks like a great improvement over the old Billet. About 30hp over the entire powerband, not counting the lowend which is crazy.
 
I just realized that graph was comparing to a standard billet wheel, not the cast wheel. I wonder what the gains would be compared to a cast wheel?

I guess more sled pullers should have shown up and raced that weekend. The only thing I didn't do that weekend was put the S478 billet on and try it. I just got finished doing that so we'll see.

Yeah, wish I could spin it alot harder becuase it would pick up alot more. I am only doing 52psi max total psi and only producing about 25psi out of the big turbo. I wish I had a back to back with the cast because that was huge down low increase, like 200hp/400ftlb increase at 1700rpms. I was never really happy with how my twins ran with the cast 475/96 becuase it was extremely laggy compared to the single turbo that I was running previously. Topend was fine with the twins just sucked driving around town and coming up on boost. The billet wheels in the atmosphere turbo made a huge difference in drivability so it is pretty much all I sell now. It is definitely marketing at its best and I can't blame them for it, there will be alot of used like new turbos flooding the forsale market very soon. I will probably not go this route with my billet wheels that I had them make for my vgt and lb7 turbos, and offer them to any one that has a 4094 based turbo. Thanks again Bullseye for the great products, most of my customers are running Bullseye based turbos! They won six different points championships in sled pulling in 4 states so we must be doing something right.:charger:
 
Thanks for posting up info Mark. I'm excited to see what these wheels will do after the data you guys have given. I'm throwing all the fuel I have at this thing and I can't phase it [stock vp is tapped out lol]. I'm hoping for some dyno time this week to see where I'm at after I throw some bigger sticks in.
