Wicked Wheel Question

I am getting some turbo surge while towing and even going uphill unloaded. I am looking to switch out the compressor wheel. I see there are tons of different ones such as the wicked wheel from XDP for like 60 bucks and lots more like one by BD Diesel and Banks for around 100. Are these all the same wheels? Will one outperform the other? Thanks for the help.

They're all the same wheels. Wicked wheel is just one vendors name for it. They each call the wheel something different. Just go with the best price, or whoever has one in stock. They've been hard to get lately.

There you go. Straight from the horse's mouth so to speak. If Dave has them in stock, he may be one of the few.
