3LM vs. Holset
|
I always here everyone talking up the Schwitzer 3LM turbos for farm stock pulling on a IH 1066. Whats so great about them. I have also heard some fuss over a holset turbo. I can buy a 3LM for about $500 and i see a holset at least twice as much, is it really worth the extra money for the holset? What do you think? |

3LM's are decent, but mainly it seems that a lot of guys have them because a stock housing is required in some areas. |

i would definetly go with a holset. tractors with a holset seem to be alot stronger than 3lm tractors |

we have run both of the chargers. And from our experience the holset is a better charger. even if you have an intake limit the holset has map rings that give you move air than the 3lm. |

should work fine...boost well depend on air flow through the head big # on boost doesnt mean more power lower # means it is free up... u want ur boost & exhaust pressure to run even not inverted. HX60 is a 3 by 3.5 charger... |
