Intercooler, injectors, turbo and meth kit are all on their way. I need a few odds and ends but I pretty much have everything to put tue car together.

Yea its a great unit for the price! I couldnt afford the bell cores or anything like that! Show 1.5 psi drop at 30psi so should be less than 1psi drop at 20psi. Should help me get the most out of the 75mm and keep it in its efficency range.

80mm compressor wheel and GT50 turbine wheel unit. We build them from 76 all the way to 91mm.

That's the one!

Awesome unit for a hot 346 street car, or a street/strip 370 wanting to make 1000rwhp+ and pull to 7k+.

Also makes a great turbo for a mild 408.

I would say the GT50 would be the better unit but big difference in price.

Yea its not very wide but tall, they sell one that has the outlets on the side but I wanted a short cold side and will probably weld the bov on top of the intercooler itself instead of the pipe.

GT50 IMO would be better as SlowLSX mentioned, but the BW is cheaper.

GT50 has a more efficient turbine wheel that can support more exhaust flow and it's a different design all together versus the BW turbine wheel.

The compressor wheel also differs from the BW 80mm compressor wheel.

Maybe if we ask nicely, Jose will be kind enough to post a BW cast wheel 80mm compressor map and a GT5080 cast wheel compressor map.

Right Jose?

The compressor wheels themselves as far as 80mm cast flow almost identical. The turbine side is where they differ.
