what do ya'll think about the variable geometry turbo off a new dodge 600?
do ya'll think that it would fit on my old 12 valve? would it be worth it versus getting a 40 or a b-1, its just a thought that ran across me, and this sites all about askin and answerin questions right?? i know a guy that deals in newer wrecked auto parts and gets a dodge cummins in every once in a while. what exactly does vgt mean??

 

i know that vgt means variable geometry turbine/turbo. i'm not sure that the new dodge applications have them though. i've been thinking about this since i read about the banks truck that they fitted up a big vgt to.

 

the VGT does not come on the Dodge ISB , it does come on the ISB used on the trucks. but the one that does come on the truck engine would be the one to use , it is controlled electronically where the bigger version are pnuematic controlled, you would have to develope some kind of controller and MAP set up to use that setup on a 12valve , it could be done but at what cost ? the Banks set up is controlled by the ECM and they have done they're own engine calibrations with the help of Cummins engineers working with them.

 

are the smaller ones (electronic) self contained units? i was thinking that with a pneumatic one, it could be hooked up and run off the drive pressure? i have tried to contact holset to get some more info on these, to no avail. i'm gonna keep trying though. any knowledge you've got i would love to hear.
