What u think it's putting down?

Riverside · Feb 28, 2015

Based from other similar builds I'd guess 850 - 900s

10k just in turbos!!!

so jealous! Keep it up!

Dang that thing is bad ass!

It seems like the high pressure turbo is doing alot more of the work compared to the low pressure.

Riverside · Mar 1, 2015

I'm thinking the same.
I don't have gate dialed in yet.

Not sure if I need to have the gate open sooner or what.

If I run the gate on just spring I still only see a max of 30 psi from the atmo.

I think you will have better luck having Matt play with the vgt.

Did I see that right? 70+ pounds of boost!?

Just put the BD tap shifter on my truck.
so far it's working great.

The safeties are still in to prevent over Rev on down shifting but you put it in 5th and it will make it hold 5th to where you can chug it at like 25 mph.

also in setting 0 all of Matts dynamic shifts points a are still active....meaning if you accelerating kinda hard it will still stay in say 3 until whatever rpm it's normally going to shift at based on the load even if you told it to shift to 4th.

Same way as if you were to be manually selecting gears with the shifter.....it's just doing it with a button instead of the shifter.

Videos dont always do things justice....is there a little bit of a lag on the manual shifts?

Riverside · Mar 8, 2015

There is some lag at times....but for the most part it shifts fairly quick.

I think mode 6 (race mode) will have better command.

B585Ford · Mar 8, 2015

Lag or not....I know if I had an auto, I would have one...even if they cost a grand...IMO if these things hold up, that is money well spent. Again, congrats on a bad a#s truck.

Well,

My sister asked to borrow my truck to move a couch.....sure thing.....she has used it before in the past.
but not since this last round of upgrades.

Next day they bring my truck back......we broke your truck.....it's pouring water everywhere.

Go out, look at it.
it's got a heavy stream running off the front of the motor.

Looking around at the truck some more i find a ton of melted rubber on the back end......Im talking a lot....the kind of rubber that a magazine quality burn out puts on a truck.

back tires are a good 1/4" lower then the fronts now.

I just look at my sister and brother in law, FU<KING REALLY.

They say....sorry, we drove it kinda hard.

Guess they just had to see what it could do with new turbos...

Got the front of the truck tore apart again.
Didn't find any popped off hoses or broken coolant lines.
So took the water pump off. Didn't see anything that indicates where the water is coming from.
hoping it was coming out from the seal on the water pump shaft.

Cause it didn't seem to leak when running but it pours out when you shut if off.

Lesson learned.
Even when past experiences were good with letting her use it.....never trust anyone!

Cause ya never know when their going to treat it like a rental.
