compressor wheels?

Been awhile but ready to change my compressor wheel. Seems to me the 99 truck wheel is the same as a wicked wheel or some of the other upgrade wheels. My 01 fins are all the same. Seems the others are stepped. I get alot of surge when I get on it so figure I better change it...not to mention its a little worn.

this would be my first choice

Increase in HP. More boost without turbine rpm increase. Quicker spool, back pressure kept in check

more info hear

Thanks. Sounds pretty impresive according to the testimonials. Testing looks the same

I have an anti-surge wicked wheel for sale I'd be willing to let go of pretty cheap. PM me if your interested.

Another vote for the Wicked Wheel 2.

I just put it on last weekend and have only got to take a short run with it, but I'm impressed. I really didn't expect a noticeable difference. I was wrong. I'm hitting 30+ on the boost gauge, it spools faster, and it pulls noticeably harder with no signs of surge. EGT and EBP seem in check.

I need some tweaking on my tunes and a bigger boost gauge to see where am at, but it seems a great mod for the price.

I did also did plenum inserts and a new EBP sensor at same time, so I can't say for sure it is all the wheel. I didn't have any boost leaks I know of before and EBP was less then 1 psi off, though.
