Hey guys
Been kicking around some idea's for the next upgrade. These 3 are in the running.
Supercharger...Decided on the Paxton 2200SL
N/A...kicking around a couple of 5.8 options.
Turbo...Thought I had eliminated turbo, but the COMP oil-less head unit is still pulling my interest.
Which leads to my question. I have been looking at the head unit below, and wonder if operating it at 600HP on the street would be to far below its operating range. I might get crazy some day and want to turn it up some.
CT43-6465
Specs:
Compressor Wheel:
Aerospace aluminum material
64mm inducer
Turbine Wheel:
713C inconel material
65mm exducer
A/R Options:
.58 T4 divided 3", 3.5", or 4" V band
.68 T4 undivided 3", 3.5, or 4" V band
.70 T4 divided 3", 3.5", or 4" V band
.81 T4 undivided 3", 3.5", or 4" V band
.84 T4 divided 3", 3.5", or 4" V band
.96 T4 undivided 3", 3.5", or 4" V band
1.15 T4 divided 3", 3.5", or 4" V band
1.32 T4 divided 3", 3.5", or 4" V band
Product: CT43-6465
CT43 Turbocharger with a CT64 Billet Compressor wheel, HE65 Turbine wheel. Perfect for 2.0 to 7.0 liter engines with power levels up to 840 HP.
Why choose Triplex Ceramic™ CT3B Technology
Light weight turbo.
Rebuildable.
Rapid rotor acceleration.
99% mechanical efficiency.
Engineered to outperform competition.
Manufactured with aluminum components.
Bearing service life is two to five times longer.
1 Year limited warranty.
The Triplex Ceramic ball bearing technology results in several important performance improvements compared to a conventional sleeve bearing systems. One important advantage is that the Triplex Ceramic can carry both axial and radial loads so that the need for a conventional thrust bearing is eliminated. The power loss attributed to a conventional thrust bearing is proportional to the fourth power of the radius and can amount to several horsepower at the high speeds at which turbochargers operate. The Triplex Ceramic is capable of carrying both high thrust loads and radial loads at the same time and usually absorb only fractions of a HP due to the anti friction characteristics.
The Triplex Ceramic Ceramic balls are also 60% lighter than steel balls and operate with lower vibration levels. Since centrifugal forces are significantly reduced at high speeds, their service life is two to five times longer. There is less heat build-up in the ceramic bearings during operation and they can reach operational speed up to 50% higher than steel ball bearings. These favorable mechanical characteristics of the ceramic ball bearings make them an ideal choice for turbocharger bearing systems that run at high operating speeds and are subjected to high exhaust gas temperatures.
