6.0 S362FMW project build

Mdub707 · Nov 20, 2014

I've heard nothing but good things from Alradco.

My buddy blew apart three stock intercoolers on his 03 truck with a stock turbo and stock injectors. Never could keep one together in that truck. For some reason he would run over 40lbs of boost on a stock charger too. He even tried a few different stock chargers from different years. Truck was a freak.

What's the chances of you making it right on the s366 deal you screwed me on?

S362FMW, Gearhead Extreme SRL, FICM ATLAS 80 tune, ALRADCO intercooler. boost was at 36psi and EGT were 1150 degrees. Runs very good and tunes are spot on with shifting. cruising 65mph my boost is 3-5psi and egt run 600-625 degrees empty. Loving it thus far. hoping to throw 190/100 in it shortly.

That's awesome. Thanks for your business.

Is the video not working for anyone else?! Right at the good part it seems to break up.

Nevermind. Just my POS phone

Looks like it's running good. I'd recommend a 75 nozzle though.

vinniehobart · Dec 10, 2014

how big is the difference between 190/75 and 190/100?

vinniehobart · Dec 10, 2014

Id was looking at 190/75 because i dont need that bigger nozzle, but some of the guys i talked to said that with good tuning i should be fine with the 190/100

you'll be fine but theres really no need. Unless you're planning on bumping up to a 250 or bigger in the future i'd stick with a 75. A 75 nozzle is big enough to flow close to 275ccs. You can't tune a nozzle so if you're doing any towing you'll be better off with a 75. I've never run a 75 and 100 back to back just going by what others have said. At the end of the day I would just run whatever matt@cutting edge recommends.

strokin6L · Dec 10, 2014

A 75% nozzle should empty the 190cc injector and actually atomize better than the 100% nozzle and possible be less smokey and have lower egts, but from what I've heard...is that some 75% nozzles run higher egts and smoke more than some 100% nozzles...and some 100% nozzles have less smoke and cooler egts than some 75% nozzles. I remember Chris @ TSD saying this on FB from what he's noticed with injectors/nozzles and his tuning. Kinda depends on nozzles manufacturer I guess. Honestly, I don't think I'd ever go with a 100% nozzle unless I was running an injector 225cc or larger. I wouldn't go with a larger than needed nozzle.

swinky · Dec 10, 2014

Thats what I was getting at.

off topic but do you think you're making more power with the ficm tunes? I've heard time and time again that ficm tuning becomes less of a gain with bigger injectors than stock, haven't heard much about ficm tunes lately.

strokin6L · Dec 10, 2014

I never dyno'd before and after FICM tuning with my truck. But I did notice better throttle response and a little more pep with FICM tuning even after I installed my 190/75's. Personally, I'd never run a 6L without FICM tuning, but that's just me.

vinniehobart · Dec 10, 2014

One of my friends put a S366 and 205/100 on and when he put the FICM tuner on after about a month of having the setup he said it increase throttle response. Mine helped slightly and I just mostly use it to watch gauges. I just want to see how the 190s run with the 62fmw. I think it will be a fun setup at the track and daily driving.

vinniehobart · Dec 10, 2014

So what all injector combinations have been ran with this S362FMW turbo? It seems like very few from what ive gathered. Havent seen any data for towing or DD on larger injectors. I dont mind being the guinea pig lol I am a Test engineer hahaha

Stroker04 · Dec 10, 2014

I think Matt ran it with 205s if I remember. That turbo won't clean 205cc injectors up though. Honestly a 175/30 and that fmw62 would be a really good running truck, clean burning, and still a great setup to tow with.
