The 6466 CEA Billet BB Turbo is a 900 hp Turbo.
This turbo performs awesome on the street and strip.
We sell a lot of these turbos and every customer has been very pleased with it.
Interested in any of these turbos, give us a call and we can give you a deal.

I got my 64-66 from Hartline... And love it!!! Killing everything on the street at just 18psi
What heads/cam are you running? 102 in the 1/8th at only 18# is impressive.
You need to update your sig and replace the 44 with the 6466.
Lol I do need to update sig. LazyWhat heads/cam are you running? 102 in the 1/8th at only 18# is impressive.

the heads are champion aluminum race ported with full throttle 214-214 fast ramp cam
I think that is going to be my next turbo. Do these things ever go on sale?
Its an .85 housing if that matters...

You have a street car. Probably have a journal bearing turbo too which is zero fun without the right converter.
Get a BB 6262 or something close. You dont need a p-trim ex. wheel. It will spool fast with less converter.
BB was the best additional $600 I ever spent.lol

My simplified feedback.
Spooling a turbo is about the drive pressure required for the work to be done and the mass to be moved/rotated.
A ball bearing requires less effort from a complete stand still because it has less friction but the bearing race also adds mass. The added mass of the bearing is also farther out from the center.
A journal bearing requires comparitively more force to overcome the initial fricton but once surrounded by an oil bath, will spin with less energy. Nothing is more slippery than a film of oil.
If you take the cost difference and put it towards a good converter, you will be miles ahead depending on the power and combo.

BB spool faster from 0-5psi. That's what you want for a street car. Stop light to stop light, roll of 10-15mph to wot, etc...
It's definitely not needed especially at mid 20's boost but it makes it much more fun on the street with BB turbo and a tight converter. jmo
