    right- so i will need a pyrometer( to measure exhaust gas temps) and guages to measure turbo boost. where is the "fuel pin"?? what does it control?? i read some about govorner springs different to get higher rpm, whats the low down on that story??

    hi guys- im new to this forum, and i see you all have quite some experiance with the 5.9 12 cummins. i have my motorhome with a 5.9, ve pump, but it only puts out 130bhp.. i would like to beef up the performance some, although i have a rebuilt ve pump( i reckon the veggie oil took its toll)...
