Wicked Wheel® 2 for the 92-2001 6.5L Chevy AFTERMARKET ROTOMASTER GM8 Turbos

The Rotomaster turbos are commonly found in many auto parts stores. They are typically recognizable by their red tag and the letter "R" casted on the compressor housing. Although these turbos are known for being an inexpensive stock replacement, you can wake them up by adding a Wicked Wheel 2! 

Important tip:
It is a left hand thread (reverse thread), meaning you turn the nut to the right to loosen.The Wicked Wheel is balanced at the Factory. Turbo balancing after installation is not necessary.

Our goal with this project was to create a more efficient turbocharger. When we talk about a turbo's maximum recommended boost levels, we base that on the rpms the turbo needs to turn in order to create said boost. When you increase boost without increasing rpms or drive pressure, the load on the turbocharger is the same for the elevated boost as is was for the original lower boost number.  The best part is when you run at lower pressures, like you would in daily driving conditions, the drive pressure/ boost pressure ratios are always lower, which should in turn result in longer turbo life, not less. ~ Bob Riley

While capable of high boost numbers with supporting mods these wheels are safe for stock turbo applications!

  • Do yous make a wicked wheel ,that's suits a 2007 ford ranger ,3ltr weat motor ,,turbo is a VJ 38.

    Stephen wilson | 7/25/2023

    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!

    Joshua Smale | 3/29/2023

    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

    Mike | 4/16/2020

    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.
