Hello Oilburners! im new and looking for as much insight on these IDIs as i can lay hands on.
Ive got a 1984 F250 with a 1986 6.9L IDI with what I hope is an ATS 093 turbo (mismatched parts, at least the airbox and exhaust of an 093) and im looking for tricks to knock the EGTs down on it. ive found that more air from the turbo (13 PSI currently) will cool it but without studs (and the pump maxed out) im concerned for the motor. I know im asking for a lot from this motor already with the amount of fuel and air on stock head bolts but im wondering if im missing any easy tricks. Timing is also bumped up quite a bit from stock to knock the EGTs down at higher RPM (pumps wore out).
