    What does this do ?

    If you want to keep rust away never change your gaskets and just let the oil fly!!! lol fords famous oil undercoating starts when your trucks old enough to start rusting and gradually ads more oil over time to keep the rust away forever! Add an exhaust leak or two and it repaints the frame black...

    Exhaust through hood?

    True dual 3 inch would probably sound amazing, horrifically loud but amazing n/a lol I had 3 inch on my truck without turbo and no muffler it was crazy loud but I enjoyed it

    Another freeze plug!!!!

    Depending on how much time you need this works really well with cooling system issues. I limped my radiator along with this and did this with my bronco when I had a leaking water pump. It's worth a shot to buy some time

    Low boost

    Tightened waste gate, achieved nothing, found stripped out bolt going into turbo pedistal had to use smaller diameter bolt and nut to fix it as I thought that would be my leak for sure this time since pedestal seals the intake off but it's now tight and only got me 1 psi of boost more. Now up to...

    How to lock out wastegate factory turbo?

    When I took the gate off it had like no spring pressure on it at all idk if it's supposed to but I tightened it down like 1/2 inch now so we will see shortly if it was leaking from back pressure

    Going to test drive a 12v cummins

    I drove my buddies 24 valve and was disappointed with the power and how it drove. Totally stock besides exhaust. My turbo idi gets up and goes better than it. If you can mess this this one some before buying I would try, they go for good money when they are in good shape and drivable. They hold...

    Low boost

    My boost guage is in my intake hat after intercooler, it jumps off of 0 and goes to like 1-2 psi then climbs up, it's looks like the needle is sticking inside when it's doing that. Oil trails on intake piping is what I'm gonna look for today that's why I'm gonna clean the top end because it's...

    Low boost

    Egt guage coming soon, my isspro seems to have died. Needle barley moves goes to 300. Stops moving after that. Was 5$ at junkyard 3 years ago I couldn't have asked for more out of it lol so why couldn't I just run my fuel pressure guage in the cab with oil pressure line then?

    Atf in oil flush

    Should I wait till the last 500 miles of my next oil change to add any mmo to it? It's topped off now but will leak or burn a quart eventually in like a month or so, and the powerstroke filter isn't likley to have been a factor in my tick lessening would it?

    Atf in oil flush

    Results! Atf in motor oil over the past week seems to have helped to tick slightly, however I did change my oil this weekend and I used a fl1995 filter on it this time instead of regular filter. should I use any detergents on it now or wait till the end of my oil change time again? Atf or marvel...

    Low boost

    Free rev 4, maybe like 4.5 it's hard to tell just a cheap mr gasket guage I got. Motor vibration makes the needle bounce a little. Im gonna dig back into it tomorrow morning, intake hats coming off, cleaning top of motor to spot leaks easier and taking off wastegate to tighten it. If boost only...

    Low boost

    I have a maxed out stock pump on the shelf still, the numbers concern me along with feeling like it should have a little more power because typ4 is running off a turned up stock pump and he's seeing 19 psi on his setup and we basically have the same thjng besides he has a 3 inch exhaust housing...

    Low boost

    Went from 088 non gated turbo to factory with banks compressor housing and 60-1 mod with banks downpipe and now added intercooler. It was making 12 max now just ten after intercooler. So no effects from cooler besides 2 psi lost which should be expected anyway. No leaks on cold side either. And...

    Low boost

    Also after regarding my timing back to the 5-6ish it was set to by the shop it smells like raw fuel and smokes at idle until warm. But it seems to run smoother and a little less clattery. But power didn't change

    Low boost

    Unless my intake manifold gaskets blew out I'm not able to find where else leaking on both sides. I can take a video of my boost guage it goes up to About 5 psi instantly before 1500 rpms and then just drops off after and slowly climbs to 10 and just holds even with increasing rpms

    Low boost

    My flow sheet says 104 cc at 1000 rpms. Yes I can cloud an entire block with black smoke till the turbo spools up though so it does happen but it clears up. Same pump and injectors ran 20 psi on my 088 ats setup previous to this though.

    It wasn't doing it before but now it is and still nothing changed. It wasn't very far off of full throttle though. I made another thread I realized I kinda highjacked this one.

    Low boost

    sorry I basically high jacked th turbo talk thread with this been at it for a while today, basically only seeing ten max turbo stops climbing, smoke clears up. 90cc pump, stage 1 injectors, factory turbo with 60-1 mod and intercooler. So far not funding leaks on exhaust side or intake side. Fuel...

    Filter new, I think I put my cable back into the wrong slot and it was in where cruise control cable would have been, going to test now but I think I will have full throttlw ability now

    I just did a throttle cable test and I still have like 1/2 the throttle throw and cannot push pedal anymore. Throttle cable maxed out and the plastic sheeth on it is broken from trying to use full throttle. This is a parts store cable and not very old. Should I try to find Original one from a...

    Turbo talk

    What if I remove and tighten the wastegate and reinstall? I did bungee with no effect, on of the big full rubber ones. I changed boost guages with no effect I did notice it looks like my needle isn't sticking and kinda jumpy though
