Truck started off as a 7.3 idi with 088 turbo and zf5 trans pushing 3.55 gears. i'm young and wanna go fast so i got my hands on a factory turbo and slapped it on her. I was running about 15psi daily on my commute to work, ******* 18-19 psi floored. I still wasn't happy with egt's and power so last month i installed my psd inter cooler. it was making decent power after that, egts still were on hot side, needed to time it. however i blew the head gaskets after flooring it from a zero to sixty instead of easing into it. The engine was tired so it got torn apart, machined .020 over, crank cut .010 under. I ordered studs, and cam from r and d last night. what turbo can keep egts cool with like 150cc???? s366 using 093 hotside? posting this to get educated, educated others, and showing off my build step by step. I'm not any crazy mechanic by any means. just your average teenger looking for some extra power.
