Product Details

Product Name: Wicked Wheels
Manufacturer: DieselSite

DieselSite's new line of Billet Wicked Wheels - WW2 Series - now have Superior Surge Protection PLUS PERFORMANCE! The only name that matters in aftermarket compressor wheels - the Wicked Wheel has a new design and we now have an entire line of compressor wheels for Ford, Dodge and Chevy. Check out our new wheel line below and expect only the best. When you make the best there is no such thing as competition.

  • Greatly improves throttle response
  • Increased Horsepower
  • Lower EGTs
  • Easy Installation
  • Easy installation - no modifications needed
  • Increased boost

The testing involved multiple wheel configurations of blade numbers, dimensional changes and pitch adjustments before coming up with the absolute best results for each application. All of our Wicked Wheels are designed to fit in the existing compressor housings with no modifications needed.You will experience EXTREME INCREASED PERFORMANCE AND BOOST, SUPERIOR SURGE ELIMINATION OVER THE ORIGINAL CAST WHEELS, REDUCED EGTs ACROSS THE BOARD, FASTER SPOOLING AND MORE...

DO NOT USE AN IMPACT WRENCH TO CHANGE TURBO WHEELS! Impact wrenches cause stress fractures in the shaft that will cause failure either very soon or thousands of miles down the road. It's like a crack in your windshield that grows over time. Take your time and remove the turbo, hold onto the turbine shaft and remove the compressor wheel with an open end wrench.

While capable of high boost numbers with supporting mods these wheels are safe for stock turbo applications! We recommend that you continue using a wastegate in 1999-2003 models to avoid excessive boost. For maximum stock turbo life, do not exceed 32 lbs. of boost for extended periods of time.

SPECIAL NOTE: Some turbos have a standard right hand thread - meaning you turn the compressor wheel to the left to loosen. No need to torque the Wicked Wheel on. Simply snug the Wicked Wheel until it fully seats. It will self-tighten to full torque. The Wicked Wheel is balanced at the factory. Turbo balancing after installation is not necessary.

    Not at this time.

  • Does the turbo need to be dynamically rebalanced after install? I've heard no. But this goes against everything I've heard about Turbos.Thanks!

    Not required.

  • I purchased a wicked wheel from you and I am having up pipes done on my truck (1997 OBS, 7.3 diesel) and was wondering since the turbo will already be out for that, what would an average cost be to have the wheel installed? The shop is charging me $500 to install the pipes and wants another $100 to install the wheel?Thanks, Mike

    Most shops would charge, at least 1 hour shop time. To install the wicked wheel with the turbo off.

  • Could you design a wheel for a cummins isl 400 turbo? Sounds like a simple way to help performance.

    You would need to contact Diesel site. They are the manufacturer for the Wicked wheel.
