D66 turbo

Is this turbo off the dt466? About how much is a fair price on them?

T4 mount and turbo of your choosing... converting to an SD setup is a waste of time and money.

I would like to know what are the differences you have experienced with the D66? But, I would like to add a very different experience I have had with the bean boys. When I went to spend the money they answered on the first ring. After that they were rude on the phone, that is if they would ever answer the phone. They would not return phone calls nor would they answer emails. My first experience with them was the baby bean injectors I run. At first my old injector cups, etc. were fine. Then all of a sudden all eight were shot. Ryan Bean almost doubled the price of the injectors. When I finally got him on the phone he agreed to split the difference with me. I said fine but the experience with the D66 I finally, after not getting any results, emailed Ryan himself. He just flat *** said he was glad to get rid of me as a customer!!

All I wanted was some help. My D66 will not spool until I'm rapped out 2,500 or above. I used Beans brass donuts and they leak. I don't have baby hands to retorque them after doing a heat cycle on them. I bought some bellow uppipes to stop the leaks. The leak is small so I don't see how this small leak can cause the extreme no and low spool at lower RPM's. Before I had a stock turbo with the 1" housing and that turbo would out perform the D66 by a long shot. I think you might be getting the point that I'm not very happy!! If the bellows don't help then I'll have a D66 for sale. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy it has worked for you. I'm just very disappointed that I used to have a kick *** pulling machine and now I have a struggling, high EGT machine. When I'm down to 20mph in 1st gear and with the stock turbo the lowest I ever got on the same hill was 43mph, yes, I'm disappointed!

It was Jan or Feb, yes it was not a cheap product. I will not call them back, after Ryan said that to me I had a few choice words for him that defiantly burned any remaining bridges that there might have been.

I'm lighting my turbo (stock) up around 1800-2000 RPM.
Thats with not enough oil to run my injectors, and stock fuel.

jg, I have a TW chip, at the time I was having trouble Matt said to get their tunes. I was tempted but looking back I'm glad I didn't. After I get my bellow uppipes on in late Oct when I get home I'll then get my TW chip reburned. Will your D66 spool up quickly, mine just sits on zero or maybe two or three pounds until my RPM's get up above 2,500.

Talyn, Its really sad. I feel if a customer has trouble, he should be able to get help. I think they have caller ID because after several calls they stopped answering my calls altogether. I then emailed Ryan directly and expressed my thoughts about my stock turbo with the 1" housing versu the D66. I made the statement that the D66 is going in the trash and I'll get another stock turbo. I don't think he liked me saying that. Instead of reselling the D66, I feel as a customer I can do whatever I want to do with the D66, its my right. Well, he got all pissey about that!
