I popped my CAT S300 the other night. I have been looking for wheels and have a couple of leads out with no response yet from some shops.
It's a 62/65/.080 and started life with a 169565 wheel. It shot the compressor and bearings. I found several threads indicating that the 64/65s are nothing but surge magnets.
I also found some mention of GTX hybrids but I can't get back to that for some reason. Does anyone know what's up with that? I'm thinking a 63mm inducer would be a happy medium between the 62 and 64 without being so prone to surge.
I can't find anything for part numbers on the 63's or 64's from borg. Is this an aftermarket only thing? Cost is a large factor but worth it for an upgrade.
I didn't post in turbo/super tech since its just another s300 question.
Thanks for any help.
