What do you do with the truck? Tow? Race? DD?

I usually just recommend a 62 but you probly have enough fuel to run the BD super B special.

If you are using it as a D.D. or for towing I would recommend the super B, not the special. Spool up is a little too high for that kind of use but the special would be great for race application.

I think just a super B might get a little warm at a 57/14 but I have never ran it bt itself.

I like 62 variants, I would go with the Silver 62 over the BD. Actually I would research that new ATS turbo with the dual wastegates & trap door before deciding, it sounds sweet.

I still havn't seen any info about that thing on ATS' website yet. I thought it sounded pretty sweet too. I think its based off of their Aurora 4000 which is basically a 64mm compressor wheel.

I think either one would work for you. The silver62 should spool up a little quicker, don't know if it'll get to hot on the top end for you though, but I wouldn't think so.

The silver 62 has a 74mm turbine so it will flow good on top.
