Dyno Testing Turbos: 12v Cummins

[@TooTallharley]

Hook a trailer to all of them with the same weight. Take them on the same hill and collect egt, coolant, and boost readings over the pull. Then swap to a ported head and do all the same test. Then a bench pump and repeat all the same tests. And if you would want to also throw a towing compound set on top of the aggressor turbos I think that would also be great info and a great video.

[@tonychacon82]

I will forever love this channel. They have always been truthful about everything since day one.

[@pddofficial]

Thanks Tony!

[@DJT609]

COMPOUNDS! Add a compound setup to compare to all of these turbos for those of us that want to compare and ultimate towing setup to a single turbo upgrade

[@StrawHatGarage]

Agreed looking to get compounds soon just picked up a 92 12v ve pump.

[@matty8272]

@@pddofficial I should clarify for the masses. The turbo is working great. It's just a little oversized for my power level. That little delay in spool takes a bit of getting used to but once it spools as the data shows it's a work horse. Personally after having the hx35 for twenty years it still catches me off guard from time to time.

[@thomasbranscome2918]

​@@pddofficialany hints? Currently running hx40 downpipe on 12v and have been hoping for a bolt-on similar in performance to the aggressor 60-64 or 60-67

Would love a part two with low rpm heavy pull scenarios. Nice work

[@pddofficial]

Noted!

[@clinkerclint]

Todd, thanks a lot for the sale. I finally pulled the trigger on a 60/64 for my 05 Fummins today. I'm super excited about lower EGTs, less smoke and more power!

[@bcbloc02]

Maybe for egt testing you should pick an rpm say 2300 and apply a steady load like 350hp and see what charger can pull that same load same speed the coolest. I think that best represents what you typically see pulling a heavy trailer up a grade normally you are just running a small rpm window of maybe 200rpm on the highway. I think you should test the s300g too. I think it would spool about like the 60-64 but have durability like the s300 and the lower egts of the 62. Big drawback to it is the 57wheel is awesome for 450 and down but at 500 it is pretty well tapped out. That is what I have found after doing extensive testing of h1c,hx35,hx40,s300g and sxe300 turbos. This of course applies only to 5.9 trucks. Add cubes like a 6.7 and the 62 is far more favorable. Also why didn't you test the 60-67 Super 9?

[@daviddroescher]

They said they can sim a grade and very the tow rig weight with the dyno when I ran my 91.5. I hope the new Mustang software update retains this functionality, this is the test most need for nontrack use proper turbo sizing choice.

[@pddofficial]

Those other turbos will be in a future video

[@daviddroescher]

Nice work. Tq is what really matters when hooked to a trailer so waiting for pt2.

[@MoneyBadgerProductions]

Just put a 62/65/14 on my 5 speed first gen with 5x.012 injectors, and although the waste gate needs adjusted. She rips!

[@jasontruman1215]

[@dbfabworks5320]

OH YEA!!!! Love this info!!!!! Love the honest answers and straight forward info from the best!!!! I would be curios to see tests around the 500hp level with small compounds. Keep it up!!!!

[@pddofficial]

Compounds would look really good compared to these. These are great turbos but to reach their true potential they should be paired with a 480!

[@dbfabworks5320]

480 was what I was thinking!! Ive had great luck with them in the T4 1.25 for the 500ish HP trucks!! Cant wait to see more!@@pddofficial

[@ronkeech908]

Love my 60/64! It’s a lot louder than I thought it would be in a good way 😆

[@Not_Built-Right]

I have a k27 and after having teething issues with it and a replacement of it i seriously cannot complain whatsoever. I only have a baby just under 300 hp on tap but the torque is a whopping 860 ftlb and that is where it counts towing is a breeze,actually astounding with lowish egt's and very happy indeed .

Todd is such an intelligent guy, really makes me love watching these videos. It’s crazy how underrated PDD is, they deserve way more than they have.

[@ChandlerLofton]

I’m planning a 12 v build from block up. I was wondering what turbo would be 1 step up from a K27. This video answers that! 60/64 with a cam, tow ported head and a cam looks like the ticket.

It will run amazing!

I just ordered the 62 with the manifold etc two days ago for my manual 92 I can't wait.

[@taydanbarker788]

I have your s362/68 and I love it. Not for the faint of heart for towing 15k around the mountains, but after a driving style change it was a night and day difference from the hx35 holding speed and keeping cool up steep grades

I have been curious about intake flow, the banks twin ram is something I would be interested to see if it makes any differences in these numbers.

[@pddofficial]

Will be doing that soon

[@VR6ix]

Would love to see what a Stage 1 PDD ported head would do on that exact same test with the 4 different turbos and no other changes

[@bcbloc02]

Mainly it will lower the boost and increase the drive pressure across the board. This will of course allow the bigger chargers to behave better and likely make some more power and on the small chargers it will aid spoolup but probably not power because the turbos already can't flow enough air.

You said it. No one pulls in this RPM. So most of this data doesn't apply. Then why not look at the torque as its in those drive ability ranges. Ill take torque down low & early every time over hp. HP #'s mean nothing to me. I never hit those RPMs. But i do want better power how I use it.

Fewer valves doesn’t bottleneck your performance?

That is an ongoing debate here for sure. 4 valve heads flow way better at lower lifts then stall out quick. 2 valve heads just keep picking up flow with lift. Both can be made to work well but probably easier with the 4 valve heads
