Thanks !!

Just waiting now to coat the cac pipes and spider when it comes off. Bunch of RR stuff coming to install it all. EBPV delete, new boots, clamps, orings, etc.

 

Ouch -Hope he don't do that any more, right.

 

He got charged for the wheel and my labor, I think hes not doing it again , 18 year old ignorant kid he learned his leasson

 

Hey guys cleaned and rebuild the turbo with the SPX wheel today, this turbo is going into my truck in a couple of weeks, but I'll remove my turbo on the weekend and install another SPX wheel I originally was going to install, just to give some feed back on how it worked
For the mean time heres some pics of the clean and painted turbo.



Deleted ebpv



Painted cover and back plate









Deleted ebpv



And last SPX wheel installed
And yes I painted the wrong housing, instead of the e99 I painted the obs one

 

Looking good! Keep us up to date. I tear into my truck next week with a whole list of upgrades/updates including the turbo rebuild. I will be sure to PM you with any questions.

 

Well got the SPX wheel on my obs turbo and WOW! WOW! Spools quick and sounds amazing, specially when you let go off the peddle after a wot run
Overal really satisfying experience with the wheel. I used my hot tune at wot and my egt would not go above 1300° (before it would hit 1350 egt ,so -50° with just a wheel good enough for me)
and little smoke to, as for boost don't know yet! got to get a new boost gauge that reads higher than 30lbs
Well worth it I recommend it to all of yall it wont disappoint.

Heres some pics of it installed















I will try to find out how my egts are when I tow my TT just to give you guys an Idea how much of a difference it made.

 

Good to hear you are happy with the results. That spider and turbo is really bright!

Did you go from the stock wheel or a WW to the SPX?

 

Stock 5 point obs wheel to SPX

 

Used the truck today going up a 8% grade about 5 miles long, my egt on my hot setting only hit 1050egt before I would easily hit 1150 going 60mph.
For what its worth my truck has the following mods

Stage 1 rosewood injectors
T500 hpop
Tw tunes
6.0 intercooler
E99 turbo pedestal and center cartridge with obs T4 exhaust housing
3" to 4" turbo back
Spx wheel
Almost forgot 6637 air filter

 

Had to beat me to it didn't ya?

Good job. All my parts are now here, just need to find the time to get it done. Doing up pipes as well since I am that far in it.

 

Yup I just had to, will see how much quicker it will spool once I put the sd turbo in there. But you wont be disappointed, theres definitely feel in the pants power and the turbo sounds aggressive not the average obs wheel sound more like a fighter jet sound, cant explain it but sounds nice, and a plus egt reduction which what I was looking for

 

Got the CAC tubes back from PC and all the rest is ceramic coated, Cerakote. All the parts are now in.

Had to buy one of those creepers too. To old to crawl up in there.

 

Looking good man

 

Thanks,

Should be able to get it installed new 5-10 days, work/job is getting in the way :-0

 

Time and work are always in between me and my Mule, but I always manage to make time for her even if its 3 in the morning
