Need turbo 3406b

You dont have to modify lines at all...just have to drill a new set of holes for the wastegate bracket

 

So we can all agree then.
Its a bolt on with mods. Lol

 

This is my first mechanical motor. What is the best rpm range to run with a 15over. Will it hurt to take it up to 2000 before I upshift? I was told not to lug it lower than 1400-1500 in a pull.

 

No it will not hurt to take it to 2000 RPM, and you will most likely have to on some occasions given the wide split between gears on a 15spd. With the stock turbo 1600 RPM has always been a good cruising RPM on mine.

My B model engines with the stock turbo would tend to cavitate pulling hard below 1300 RPM with the stock turbo, but since I have put the 177148 on I get more boost, and much quicker and at lower rpms. I can pull hard down to 1300 now and not exceed 950* on the pyrometer (post turbo). I still can't make myself pull it hard below that, although I believe it would be ok. The 177148 fits an E model I believe and supports up to 550 HP. If you have it turned up higher than that the 177148 might not breathe well enough.

 

I've got a garret tmf 55 same specs as a bw 171702. Was told in previous thread it was a direct swap for a b model.
Year and half old 150000 miles with it no problems. Just got a good deal on little bigger one when I upped my injectors.
$300

 

Ok. My engine isn't turned up from what I can tell its pretty much factory set. It doesn't roll smoke like alot of b models. It pulls ok but not overpowered. I'd like a bit more boost and sooner. It sat for a while so it may be just a matter of running it for a while to wake it up. It had an inframe not long before it was parked.

 

Sorry same as a 171701. 702 is what I put on my truck. It spooled a little faster than the one I have now.
