Well things have been moving really slow and I am about to kick everything into overdrive. I am going to try and make it to the TSD Dyno day on Feb 15... thats 3 weeks away. Waiting on parts has got me way behind schedule... oh and I busted up my hand pretty good snowboariding. It is my...
Well MTW has the biggest turbo out there right now... it is a stage 4 vgt.
I know everyone has their own opinions but there is a limit on how big to go with vgt at this point. What I mean by that is if I had 350/150s I would not be looking to go the vgt route. I would go with a large...
Well... .72 and .58 relates to the AR of the compressor housing.
I am going to be testing to see if it makes that big of a difference.
Here is a little article that can help to understand the terminology

Ummm... I don't have it yet but I have researched it. There are many different options.
One that I think works best for me and that I am going to try is to put the bolts down in the intake and put the intake manifold gasket on before installing in the truck. That intake manifold gasket will...
Well here are some sneak pics of my ported intake manifold.
I think I have already posted this but I went with a Windrunner performance manifold (AKA WPE or ODAWG)
The communication process has been great! The product looks AWESOME! I am super excited to see how the truck likes it. It...
Make sure to use new O-rings and Copper washers.
Also make sure you torque the bodies down properly.
You will either need a special tool to grip the injector body, or you can use the injector hold down clamps (the ones that bolt the injector do the head). Put the injector upside down in...
for me the hairspray worked great but no one explained the process right. Here is how it worked best for me.
Clean the tube really good inside and out
clean the boot really good inside and out
Spray hairspray liberally! (that means a lot)
Spray on the inside of the tube
spray on the outside...
We are all here for the same thing (well most of us) to educate ourselves through discussions about these exact things!
Keep educating yourself before jumping right in and buying a 6.0 powerstroke. They are great truck but you need to know what you are getting yourself into.
IMO that is way...
You run 0-2.4ms... not 2.4-x.x ms
ms stand for mili second. It is how long the high pressure oil pushes on the back of the intensifier piston inside the injector. The longer it pulses the more fuel is dumped. If you pulse longer than 2.4ms at high rpm you risk the chance of advancing the...
I know you are just using it as an example but you cannot run 3ms or even 4ms... your timing would be so far advanced that it would blow your motor. Most people tune to the max of 2.4ms , maybe 2.6ms, I have even seen 2.8ms. But 3ms would cause major cylinder pressures and possible blow the...
This is not to come off sounding like a douche, or jerk. But you are asking a question that can only be understood and explained if you understood the info I posted above.
If it does not make sense yet then I would read it over again. I am not being negative or sarcastic. Or putting you...
^^^^ I should have double quoted... see my first my previous post.
Basically this is not true. (although it would be nice if it was true... then there would only be 1 nozzle size... there would be no need for 30, 50, 75, 100, 150 etc...)
This is a rating of the max potential of the injector. It is the max fuel that the injector can hold given 1000 shots... Max ICP, Correct Nozzle size, and fuel pressure allowing. But it is not just a given.
PS... 3ms of PW would more than likely blow your truck up.
Think of an injector as...
I don't believe in absolute but I will answer this as best I can.
There are a lot of variables that go into this question. Let take any given truck with a descent sized injector and keep everything else the same...
At idle egts will be the same... (duh lol)
Around town with easy driving egts...
