the sledge is probably the most common larger turbo, but i know of a couple people who have ran much larger in non street apps.

any idea the flow on that vs the bdp-71 you were running? if i recall, the 71 was 1350cfm?? looking foward, im guessing ill need larger than the d66 for 230cc hybrids, but im doubting ill need anything that big, will i? i was thinking a modded h2e or a turbonetics bb would suffice. thoughts?

modded h2e will provide enough air to bend your forged rods yet spool quite well.

Modded H2 will be perfect for 230's. D66 will work but wont like that much stress.
