we need to mod your turbo some.I'm starting to think Wastegated might be better for towing.
Here's my reasoning: I have a non Wastegated ATS turbo and tow a big 5er.
If you hit the bottom of the hill at 3000 rpm, the truck will pull right up it.
But most of the hills around here seem to have a 35mph corner(s). My truck will maintain speed just fine on hills, but trying to gain speed going up them is a different story. With almost 18k pounds between truck and trailer, it pulls great from about 2500-3000; but if it drops below about 2500, you loose boost and the engine kind of falls on its face.
I already work the engine hard with this much weight, so I've got it in my head not to go over 3000rpm; maybe I just need to lean on it a lil harder...
I also wish I knew for sure if the Sidewinder made for my 7.3 was done in California. All I could find out was that their main shop includes about one hundred employees.
During my working years I spent time along side craftsmen and women from Europe, Japan and the USA. NO ONE, AND I MEAN NO ONE, DOES IT BETTER THAN WE DO.
Think I'll give Banks a call on Monday, and see what they have to say.
