70mm turbo and propane on 6.9

[429idi]

Here's a couple videos of my truck driving around with the new turbo. I'm not convinced that the propane is working anymore. It did with my last turbo, but that one had a 3" intake pipe, this one has a 4" and I think it might not have enough velocity to create the vacuum in the venturi necessary to start the flow of propane. The turbo is a lot louder in person. It is a 6 blade compressor.

Anyways here they are...................

You think it has the much difference? Maybe try the 3" intake on this one if you can. I also said on the other site to check for propane leaks. Idk...

Guage on the right is boost, correct?

What kind of boost #'s are you making? Sounds good!

A 4" has almost twice the flow capability of 3". There is a "high flow intake" diaphragm spring that you are supposed to use with aftermarket intakes. There aren't any leaks, nothing has changed except the new turbo.

I wish the 60 psi was oil pressure.

The boost is on the left, I'm hitting 15psi consistently. I haven't really been out of 2nd gear though. This turbo will flow enough air to make 45psi boost in my 6.9 at 3300rpm.

Pyro is in the middle, and it stays under 600f the whole time.

Sorry got my sides mixed up I meant left.

Sounds great!

Will you be able to change that diapram out then? Also, you really need more fuel if you are only hitting 600* on your egts. There is a lot more power to be had with your setup.

I absolutely love the way your truck sounds.
Please describe to me EXACTLY what you are running for exaust.

They make a replacement spring, I just can't find one.

What turbo is that. I can't remember what you had in your last thread.

I'm pretty sure he's running just the downpipe and no exhaust. He's just got a big turbo that spools really well on it...

Edit: I was going between two threads. Oops. I thought this was the loud whistling turbo thread. Haha

The noise you hear mostly isn't from the exhaust, it's engine noise, and the turbo noise is from the turbo compressor. The exhaust has a 3" down pipe into 4" back into the 5" stack y, and into 8" stacks.
