Nope. That's why I have industrial make all my exhaust housings like the stock 6L flage. Other than the leak how's it running

Runs great. No issues as of yet, besides the exhaust leak on the back of the turbo.

Still running the 225/100 as before.

Thank You.

I tried to take my time, and make it clean. Now if I can fix the exhaust leak before it turns everything black that would be great. (Which might be awhile cuz I haven't floored it yet...lol)

LOL

when does that high pressure start to light? Is it nice just driving it around town?

Haven't really watched it....been watching the oil pressure a lot though.lol

Cold start, it has 80 psi at n idle...warms up, and it drops to 60 psi at 2000 rpm.
Fully warmed up, at an idle, it has 20 psi, and shoots up from there. (55 psi at 1500 rpm)

I think it had about 28-30 psi at idle when warmed up before...and the same 60 psi at 2000 rpm.

A good rule of thumb to go by (so I hear) is 10 psi minimum for every 1000 rpm's, so I'd say you're doing great!

those are similar numbers to what mine reads

Yeaaaaa!!

I'll push it a bit harder today...see what "Shakes".

Maybe a video...we'll see.

While my oil system is not OEM, it's more of a BPD hybrid, I see 22-24psi at idle and 52-54psi above 1500 rpm when warm (i.e. @ 205F). When cold at idle, I see 75-76psi. This is also with 5500 miles since the oil change. I would say that if you are seeing 60psi at 2k rpms and anything above 20psi at idle when the oil is warm, then I would say you are probably ok.

you're keeping us on our toes! :lookaround:

Well, just went for a ride.
Tried to do an aggressive run, but only seeing 2000psi for hpo pressure on the autometer gauge.
Falls on its face...lift my foot, and it comes back...but no high pressure.

Awesome....

Just put in a TEC7 Race tune from Eric.
Couple more little runs, and it come around.

Same HPOP issue with my truck

Do tell....

What was the problem, or how did you fix it?

I still haven't floored it off the line...just trying to get the pressure above 2000...seems to stick at 1500, then jumps to 2000...but wont go higher.

What was/is yours doing?

Pizza pig · Apr 3, 2012

his pump was bad...Im just curious though where are you getting your ICP from?

Thats what mine was doing. like greg said, where are you reading it from? Read ICP voltage if you can.
My ICP would be around 2300-2500 at half throttle and it would pull nicely, but when I put my foot to the floor it just smoked like a pig and fell on its face (ICP wouldn't go higher than 2500 at WOT).

edit: The general consensus for my truck is ICP is extremely low and it isn't atomizing properly with the added fuel. yada yada yada blah blah blah. I have the new pump waiting to be put in, I am just waiting on my new setup to see if that was the issue.
