Turbo Recommendations December 30, 2021 05:29AM
Looking for a turbo recommendation for the 5.9 Cummins build I have going into a “farmstock” tractor class

Class limited to a 3LM466 or smaller turbo (58mm inducer compressor)
Class also limited to 3000 RPM - No water or cut tires

Current stock turbo is a Holset H1C - 54mm compressor

I don’t believe that a 3LM is my best option but I’m not 100% certain. I’d like some suggestions and recommendations on what turbo you believe is best as well as where I should purchase the charger.

I appreciate your help.

How many horsepower will an S200 support? And would an S200 be better than a S300 for my application at 3000 RPM?

And a MWE is permitted, yes

I don't know of an S300 with that small of an inducer. An S200 will support up to 650hp by the BW catalog.

Depends on the wheel in it but the s257 on our case 2590 farm tractor is rated for 56lbs/min if I remember correctly, and if you use the old fashion 10hp per lb/min then of course 560hp. Plus or minus 50 depending on your setup. You likely won’t be able to turn an s300, you might, but I don’t think so. Maybe a s360 with the tightest housing. Doubt you’d stay on top of it at the end though. The s257 with a 61mm turbine and .83 a/r will hit 30lbs of boost, probably around 200cc’s of fuel. That’s just for reference, not really relatable.

Didnt see the 58mm inducer part.

Re: Turbo Recommendations December 31, 2021 09:40AM
That’s great information guys. I’m glad I asked because I wasn’t sure about an s300 or not.

InjPumpEd, I will probably be giving you a call sometime soon. Thank you for your help

An S200 57mm would be perfect, as long as you're allowed a turbo with MWE. I sell quite a few of them for smaller CID engines pulling.

That sounds a lot like a class in western Pa that has been called Tough Farm.

Where are you located? Maybe we can bring our tractor to your pulls.
