Which S366

Towed my 32' 5th wheel and 12' trailer with two Harley baggers to Sturgis this year. About 950 miles one way pulling approx. 15k. Never came close to running out of power but had to back out and 2x down shift because of egt's. Thinking I need to do an S366 install. Which S366 would should I go with?

You can get a standard old gen S366 for around $580... the s366 sxe runs about $750 S300-SXE 66/74 SUPER CORE | BARDER TURBO SERVICE

If you are doing the conversion, forget the s366 and go with a s369 http://barderturboservice.com/produc...974-super-core

best of both worlds. Some may disagree but its a pretty incredible turbo that will spool and cool just fine with a hi setting on a chip with some measly 160s, or all the way up to 250/200s. We have done 5 different setups now and I'm sold on the darn thing with how its performed in many different fuel applications. I am having a hard time swinging it, but I want to slap my old 366 on the ex and get a 369 on the work truck this winter...

I had the opportunity to run it on my truck setup as below, it was an impressive jump over the stock old gen 366 i had in there.

I'll look into those options tonight. I'm just tired of having to baby it getting on the hiway towing so I don't smoke everyone out then having to let out to avoid getting hot. I don't drive fast or hard, just want the best towing turbo for my setup

I'm happy as can be with my S366 with a wicked wheel installed in it. Nick says the 369 is great, and I believe him, but I have no plans to switch. Mine works great.
