Switzer S200

Hi Guys, would a switzer s200 be a choice of a turbo to use on our trucks or not? It looks a little small on both ends. Thanks Bencie

depends on the specs, i ran a s200 with a 62mm comp wheel before my twins, and it did just fine, but they do have small shafts and a bit more prone to breaking, but its still going on my cousins 1st gen and he doesnt treat it nice, but you need to know wheel sizes and a/r ratios

yep. only the 200 is a smaller frame than the 300 where as the hx-35 and hx-40 are based on the same frame. as well as all other hx turbos but i could be wrong about that. cat motors are known to run the schwitzers. both the s200 and s300 depending on the HP. the a/r of the turbine housing will be significantly larger though.

The s200 I got is from a Mack Midliner non-wastegated, they have a Renault inline 6 in them. They are a discontinued truck for several years now. This turbo has a small compressor housing not sure of the size but the serial # is 10L04-1781 if anyone knows what that means. Maybe a candidate for twins maybe not? Its new old stock.
