I mean with a good clutch is there any danger of breakin anything with out tq management vs with tq management?

Wap,

On a manual tranny truck, torque management is worthless as long as your clutch can handle the power. It's more important for the auto guys who don't have $5k into their tranny. I am only running it for the reduction in smoke. If I didn't care how black I made the cars behind me, I'd always run the wild program on SW9....the throttle sensitivity parallels a big block gasser...especially with the MP8.

Ehh sounds confusing....
Silver series is 74 mm what I´v heard from other forums by IIpeople....
I have to check that... I´ll be back on that one...

Rob, thats kinda what I thought on the tq management. I understand it for the autos I was just curious if there where any negative effects with a manual and a good clutch.

Ah, interesting! I was mis-informed by II on that one, but he did state that spool is maybe just a tad better than the SPS6280...if it really is 3mm larger on the wheel, even with an extra blade, spool would probably be the same as the SPS6280, not better. Either way, it's a great turbo and I couldn't be happier with it.

Wap,

Yep, the G56 and NV5600 are both plenty strong to handle anything the 5.9 throws out, so torque management is only for smoke control.

I think the silver 62 is a tad slower than the SPS6280, but when it hits, it hit faster...

It definitely hits fast. Check out the dyno video I created... http://videos.streetfire.net/video/8...c100ed4de6.htm

It hits noticeably later than stock, but the time from intial onset to full boost is much quicker than stock.
