    Digital Pyro

    i have one on mine, some folks round here say the digital wont read as fast as an analog/mechanical. had both on a truck before i put it into mine and the autometer digital almost read faster than the analog. they work great, are easy to see, and dont require your eyes to be off the road for too...

    Trubo IP on a N/A 7.3

    just do the opposite of turning it up. 1 or 2 flats oughta bring down your temps and get rid of the smoke screen. mine will crop dust anyone behind me when i tow something, but normal operating its a haze at most, unless i lug it with my foot to the floor.

    Put a muffler on it

    in the shortest answer possible, yes. the egts will climb faster with restriction (muffler, small pipes...) in the exhaust.

    WTB: Turbo kit

    couple reasons for why id rather go non gated, first off, thats all ive worked on and worked with, i work with and on tractors and combines, mostly OLD stuff. ive never had a problem with a non gated turbo. which brings me to my other reason, egts. I know that a gated turbo will build boost...

    Exhaust Kits?

    i just bought a chunk of 4" pipe, a 4" band clamp, the prebent dynomax 4" tailpipe and built a 2 1/2 to 4" adaptor. it doesnt sit nearly as low as the kits do, although i do need to get it to aim more straight out rather than at a slight upward angle

Anyway, the closer the better obviously and i'll pickup somewhere within reason. Id like to get a non wastegated Hypermax preferably, but the older banks is...

    Update on the Hypermax Head Gasket

    but just remember as the compression ratio went down, the stock boost numbers went up. our N/As at 21:1 make ok power at 0psi of boost. have you watched what happens when you pop the pressure pipe off a 6.0? no power, no nothing. just something to ponder i guess

    Open y-pipe or muffler delete?

    id also like to see a link for this 3" y pipe. my truck came with no exhaust, just 3 foot of 2 1/2" pipe right off the y pipe. after that nothing. so i bought a 10ft chunk of 4" exhaust pipe for 30 bucks and a prebent 4" tailpipe and am finishing putting it together. currently im up 4 flats and...

    Switch panel location.

    I run all of my switches in a whelen heavy duty switch box. they are horribly pricey new, but used they make for the best box out there. Fused, water proof, lighted, and have a common ground lug. I like mine. (dont mind the trailer brake controller wiring in the picture, thats on my list...

    Clutch Interlock Switch... NO orientation clip

    ok, so i want to get my cruise up and running, and am a little afraid that there are some dumbasses who think they need to move/start my truck that are just dumb enough to have it in gear and not press in the clutch. Well, i went and climbed under my dash and had a look around. I found my...

    Cruise switch problems

    should only be an open/close switch. thats what it looks like in the wiring diagrams. you could try unplugging it, BUT then you'll need a push button somewhere to activate the safety feature so you can start it. to answer your question, yes, the brake switch also shuts off cruise

    Need more POWER!

    Need more POWER!

    you could also put in a boost controller. even the manual ones would work fine. then you still get the benefits of a wategate, but with a little more control pwrsmoke: i believe you're backwards. doesnt a wastegated turbo spool faster yet retain more heat?
