An S400 single of some type is in my future yes (yes mine's a 6.7), whether I go batmowheel or not is TBD. I would go 2nd gen manifold with a single charger of some sort if I were you. There's a difference in being able to spool a giant charger and tow with a giant charger... if you need to be able to tow, I wouldn't go any larger than S472 in a .90A/R T4 housing, that's what our 6.7 show tow truck uses.
A single S366 in a non gated T4 .90 housing and a 6 blade billet wheel would be a GREAT starting point... without the billet wheel that charger can be had in the $1000-1200 price range and on the 2nd gen manifold would be an easy swap to a larger single in the future as you turn up the fuel...
We've got a set of S472/S595 compounds on a built duramax at the shop... it's just retarded power :st:... not exactly a starting point though :evil
Ok. Lost me again. Where can I find some good reading on turbos, housing, terminology, sizing, race cover????? Who do you recommend as the manufacturer.
When you say .90a/r. what is that referring to.. One last question. I know that some are good to tow with and some arn't. But why exactly. Is it just the simple fact that you have to go fast in order to keep the turbo lit?
