So, since you have good fuel pressure during WOT, did you see any performance gain?

Keep us posted man, I wanna see how those Stage 1's treat you

 

[flatlander]

I bought a set of injectors from a disgruntled oilburner. We'll see if they work out.

As for performance, I did not notice anything different from my gauges, but I did notice that I have a little smoke at max boost. Still only 650 egt, though.

Hmm, would have figured you would have picked up a little.

Hey, can you quickly explain your turbo setup again. I've always been under the impression that its not your normal run of the mill twin turbo setup. This is what I think of when I'm thinking twin (er sequential) turbo setup. You have a small and a large turbo. Exhaust goes up into the small turbo, and exits out of it, and then goes into the large turbo, then out of the downpipe. The small turbo spools up the air from the air filter, then forces it into the larger turbo, to be boost more, and then sent into the intake. Its not setup like that is it?

You're half right. The exhaust is just like you said, but the air goes the opposite way. It goes through the larger turbo first, then the smaller and into the engine.

Ok, I gotta know. How you keeping those EGT's so low?

So is this how you broke your drive shaft?

Lots of air. The highest I've seen yet is about 800 and that was pulling the trailer up a grade for about 2.5 miles.

No that was my own stupidity.

You still need the one I got? I'll be pulling it after I get the grass cut.

You might be a redneck if you have to cut the grass to get to a driveshaft

 

[punkmechanic]

you might be a redneck if the majority of your time and money goes into an outdated truck! lol. I know Im a redneck for sure (although the mohawk and nose ring dont lend to that. lol I just keep em guessn)
