Turbo advise, what size to go with...

[fatride]

Mods are in my sig. the converter is 3200 stall. My new PT67 just took a crap with only 50 miles on it. It's going out tomorrow to get rebulit. Now I'm thinking of seeling this turbo once I get it back. It;s a nice turbo but my converter is a little small. What size turbo do you think I should go with that will compiment my conveter and still get into the 10's with?? Looking for a better, faster spooling turbo for the street and still get into the 10's at the track. Only addition to the combo will be a PAC akly kit in the spring.
Thanks for your thoughts

I have a setup close to yours. I've got a 67BB that should spool fast with my 3200 stall when I get finished with my rebuild and should be a 10 sec. capable car.

Was up BW??? How is KC? No not selling the Blue T, I want to bulid a 4.1 thinking of selling my current motor.......

KC is doing good, very nice weather think it was 65° today.

The track is hooking and everyone is doing pretty good here.

PM me some details of you motor, im thinking of doing a stroker 109 with a girdle...

I would consider keeping the 67. If everything else is working "properly" you should be able to spool with that converter. Maybe a boost controller that helps increase spool up, but I wouldn't downgrade turbo's!

Good luck!

There's nothing wrong with the PT67.

Mine just pushed my stock unopened motor into the 10's.

Sorry to Hijack! What exhaust housing is best for the pt67, the 63 or 85.

YULLOSE, What stall is your converter??

This past sunday, we got a guys car to run 10.69 at almost 127 with a regular ole PT67 turbo on a 1.56 or slower 60'

That car is full weight and the boost was 26psi, 27° down low and 23° on the top end.
Couple gallons of racegas on the meth tune to be safe.

Heck, look what Grumpys daughters car is running 10.10 at 132 on a 66 trim turbo

Nick,---Why did the turbo fail with only 50 miles?

What exhaust housing?

My stall is suppose to be 3400 but I have seen 3800 at the track with my te-61.

My new PT67 just took a crap with only 50 miles on it.

wow

My new PT67 just took a crap with only 50 miles on it.

HOLY SCHNIKE! i was looking into a 67. can you elaborate more on this? was it a manufacturers defect? Are they rebuilding for free? what trim was it and how much would you sell if for after the rebuild?:biggrin:

 

[fatride]

My Pt67 is an older big shaft P trim.That was fresh approx. 50 miles on it. Not sure what happened to the turbo. Never had it over 15# of boost. I took the DP off this past weekend and there was a ton of oil in the exhaust housing and DP. I will find out Friday what happened.

YULLOSE, What stall is your converter??

Haven't really studied the RPM's too much... but it's around 3000 or so.
It's a little tight, but I don't mind the lag on the street. It's like built-in traction control.
The convertor was made for an entirely different combo, so I just got lucky that it works in my GN.
