Pls explain a few terms about TC's.......

[Silver Fox]

Guys are spooling 67 DBB's with our 2800 so spool will be very good with the 61 and 62mm turbo's. The only way I'd go 3200 with that turbo is if you leave the boost down low, meaning your only making 12.00 et power and shifting at 5600+ rpm. If you want to maximize the combo I'd run the 2800. It will spool very well and still deliver nice efficiency up top.

Thanks Dusty.

Dusty - I missed the low boost part. I only run 18-20 pounds of boost (even with Alky).

Is the 2800 still the one for me, or the 3200 with my boost.

With a 61-62mm turbo?? 2800 is the way to go.

The 3200 is more suited for cars with larger turbos like a 67mm that are only looking for et.s in the 11.00 range. Most guys with the 67 really like the 2800 although on paper it shouldn't work with that large of a turbo. Just shows there's much more to a converter than it's advertised stall rating.

When you talk about the 2800 and 3200 are you talking about the 10.5 or the 9.5 , lockup or NLU and do either have a billet cover??

The 2800 and 3200 are the 10" converters which can be LU and NLU.

The 9.5" is always a NLU and can be made very tight and could go well below 3000 stall. I have done a few with 3000 but most are 3200+.


None of the converters listed have a billet cover. They only add to the cost of the unit.

i am going to upgrade my turbo to a turbonetics stage 3. been told it's close to a t49 but a liitle bit better. sounds like a 2800 would be good for my set up also. what do you think

 

[Dusty Bradford]

The 2800 will work with the journal bearing turbos up to something with a 62mm compressor wheel.
