I Gots to know turbo expectations

I was impressed on how well your truck ran as a NA Joe. IIRC I was running right at 19sec in the quarter and you were right there. Do you remember what it ran as a NA?

It all depends on what kind of "Hills" you are talking about....

My truck was an 89 F-250 4x4 with 3.55 gears and the zf5...I was running 285/75/16's with 4 inches of suspension lift

When I moved out here to CO, I had about 1,000 pounds of gear in my truck, I was barely able to maintain 70 MPH crossing vail pass and eisenhower tunnel, BUT mind you these are at 11,000 FT elevation. But I had an ATS non gated turbo and a homemade LPG injection setup... This was in 4th gear 2500 RPM's and about 10-12 Pounds of boost.
Hope this helps!

im with 93 turbo---my 94 thats been modified--will outrun the 96 psd i own--and it aint no slouch--no contest--and i hauled a wd45 dsl that weighed right at 6100 lbs--on a 1500 lb car trailer--from wv home-never overheated--and outran a 24v dodge that was real close to my weight--me thinks thats why ford never turned up the turbo idis---plus its super simple--also--the idi is easier on fuel than the psd????? aint got that figured out yet---the one problem i see--if your engine aint a turbo original--dont know how far id go with the boost--but think 10 max would be ok---
