Here it is! The Billet "Batmowheel"!

I can tell you guys this, these wheels aren't the same. I just tried the bird carcass test & it didn't eat it. Damnit! They really test those wheels don't they? Wow!

I just don't see how a 66mm out flows/performs a 75 mm ???????????

Be careful, the 66 likely is nothing more than a "cut" wheel made to fit/protrude into a 66mm opening like they do in sled pulling.

Exactly, I asked in another thread what the exducer of the "66mm batmowheel" is? As presented it would be easy for many to assume a true 66mm (i.e. s300) batmowheel is flowing nearly the same air as a 478 lol.

Yes it was a 66-100mm comp, 87mm exhaust, with a 1.10 housing

The only thing we changed was the compressor wheel.

Sorry Nick, I forgot to reply on that other thread Nick

No worries, thanks! So that wheel is shaped a bit differently then the standard equivalent I would assume given I believe the standard 475 ETT wheel has an 102mm exducer. That right?

Yes that is correct

Hopefully this will clear things up for ya!

For them to mean anything they need to test several known wheels and see those also.

The testing they did on Arons truck was definately awesome, but what works on one dont work on every truck. I am ppumping my truck the minute Zach gets a cam on my doorstep. Once I do, I plan on testing on the track. I'm having a S480, S475 built to test as well. I know the batmo 66 flows on the compressor side, but the turbine side will probably become my restriction if I reach my goal.

You had said flowcharts. For the flowcharts to mean anything on this batmo several known(OEM borg, garret, with OEM maps) will need to be checked on the same test bench.

I have seen x turbo manufacturer claim their 68 would flow nearly 110 lb/min, where borg rates the s480 at 120 lb/min. When I questioned them on it, I was told "well borg underrates their wheels" While they may or may not be the case, that is what most of the users will base their comparison on.

Testing it on the stand will eliminate the turbine variable, porting variable etc. Also testing it on an inertia dyno is subjective also. I have seen Jim Bo's xxxHP cr get the whooping put on it by a 200HP less Ppump.

Good point. Flow chart is the best comparison.
 
im confused why you wouldnt spend less for a bigger compressure that flows more like i just did unless you were class rule limited? it was around 2k for a 480 bamo and 17xx for a forced 91... from was i see the standard 480 flows 120 with no info on any bamo and the garrett standard 91 wheel flows 141.. just saying..
 
I'm not buying into the batmo until legitimate results prove they are a more efficient compressor when compared to a standard wheel of the same dimensions.

Agreed. But i saw a few at ts this weekend. Neato looking for sure

How did these turbos do in the 2.6 class at TS? I assume there were some trucks running it.
 
Looks are fine but for the money unless it is a more efficient like previously stated!!!!!!

So it must be the 3rd place? LOL, if it was one in the top 2 it would have been the 2nd.

You got me there, lol. I know that the first place truck has a Precision and I don't know what the Haisley truck had on it but I know what is under the hood of the Hulk! We are very happy with the results.
