I'm thinkin it's getting to be time to move up to a larger turbo. I currently have a PDR35-12 with dd2 & comp(no wire yet) Temps are not a big problem yet, but I know if I tap the wire i 'll have some egt problems. Anybody have any suggestions. I'm leaning towards the Dodgezilla. I'm not realy into drag racing, but I do like to get on it some times. I do a bit of towing ,about 8000lb. I want to stay with the HX35 cofiguration as I don't want to lose my exhaust brake. O and I also have a dtt tranny. Any help would be appreciated

Not sure but I don't think the B-1 will work with an exhaust brake. With the Dodgezilla, I have heard of mounting problems when combined with an E-Brake but it has been done. Like you said, your pretty much limited to a version of the Hx-35.

TDI, I'm sure you're aware of the 4" inline e-brakes... But I assume you meant you didn't want to lose your CURRENT e-brake... which makes sense... they ain't cheap!

Have you considered a mild upgrade like a 14cm housing? Or, are you wanting to plan down the road....

Hey guys, thanks for tunin in . I have heard that there is a KSB1-B that is compatible with hx35, I beleive it is an E3 housing. Also have been told that moving up to a 14wg housing on my PDR35 would be a waste of time. I currently do have a pac brake & want to keep it. Thanks again guys, keep your ideas cummin(s)

Forgot about the EX3 turbine outlet. I believe the KSB1-2 will move 2-300 cfm more air than the Dodgezilla so should give you better top end; I know it will give you quicker spoolup. I love mine, with the EX4 outlet.
To be sure, Ask Rod at Wildcat! He will know.

Are the kwikSpool turbos worth the money even if you have big enough injectors?

Having had an HTT 35/40 hybrid along with a drag comp and Don M's 2.5's, I'd say save your money and go with twins. Then you know you can tow and be ok. With the 35/40, 2.5's and a drag comp I could easily bury an 1800 pyro. Just a thought.

I think it depends on what you want! My primary goal is max street drivability first with healthy HP second.. To get street manners I sacrifice some top end pull.

Can't have both with a single turbo, as I'm sure you know. My Kwik Spool B-1, with medium injectors, spools very close to as fast as my HY-35 did when stock. Fast spoolup AND 48-50 lbs useful boost at 1500*max is pretty amazing to me. Can other turbos do all that? Worth the price, if you can afford it, IMO.
