Am ready for a turbo upgrade I found both 6265 cea and bb what will be a better turbo ??
 
FWIW: BB should spool faster, but the CEA wheel can make more power. I don't think many of us here come close to what these turbos are capable of. I talked to a guy who has a DBB 6262 on a Evo running 40psi.....
 
These should be the same turbos with the exception of the center section.
What is your combination?
You may not need the 65 Turbine Wheel.
 
Why not get the 6265CEA BB turbo and have both?

Ball Bearing Option Available
(add $600.00 to MSRP)

Waste of money? Just put that $600 towards one of Dusty's PTC converters and a journal bearing should be fine?
 
I ran a 6262 JB and now have a 6265 DBB. At the track it took 3 more lbs of boost to get the same 60ft with my set up for the JB 6262compared to the 6265DBB. And on the street the 6265DBB spools night and day faster than the 6262 JB did from a roll. To me the extra $600 was well worth it as far as making the car more fun to drive and easier to launch at the track. I can get 1.65 60ft launching at 2lbs of boost with the 6265DBB. The 6262 JB needed 5lbs to do a 1.65. This was with a 0 pump Vig. Total power I did not notice much if any difference.
 
I also say if you can afford it get a BB. I just bought a 6766 CEA BB. added 10 CI and 10 to 1 comp ratio hope it spools LOL
 
I made up my mind am getting the 6265 cea dbb turbo I can't go wrong for the price its a lot of turbo for the money!!!

Do you think if you had the 6262 CEA DBB that it would be the same or the 6265 is that much better?

My guess is you wont notice any difference. I have a 6765 on my GN with the same set up as my TTA and the 6265 is close to the same power as the 6265 at 25lbs of boost on my setups. I cant see the 6266 making more power than a billet 6765.
