No time lol maybe before Ennis if we are lucky but probably not. We are going to try a lower pw and see what it does. Ether way it shouldn't be dropping any.
Got it all back together. Here is the diaper. Going to keep any drips from hitting the track!

I forgot to update this thread about the HPOP issues. I think it's a duty cycle issue because its surging going down the track.

Is that like a stumble at 2500 rpms? Mine acts up and icp at 3k rpms is lower than 1k rpms

no the ICP pulses going down the truck and you can hear it in the truck. I dont think it drops to 2500 during a run.

Well I'd hope it's an ipr. That hpop wasn't cheap

pretty sure its because the duty cycle is the same as a stock HPOP not the IPR. Its so hard to get the thing right because you cant just go out and drive it on the street after a new tune like you can your truck. you only know after it goes down the track. Thats why Im planning on taking it to TSD before ennis and putting it on the dyno to get it dialed in and see what it can REALLY do.

Maybe a trans brake

Well trans brake isn't going to happen. Won't be ready in time. We are going to try and find some bigger calipers for the rear.

It will but only 15psi or so. I want to get my 1.5 60s down to 1.3 ish
Yeah on the stock ranger axle. :doh:

No it has a sterling 10.5 shorten with willwood duralite 4 piston calipers. We are getting 6 pistons and playing with the proportioning valve some more to try to get it to hold since we can't get the trans brake in time for Ennis.

It's not a big huge rotor like you would think. It's pretty small really. The rotor adds a TON to the rotational weight of the drive train.
Wow, brain fart there! LOL
Right, they're typically much smaller, but usually have a huge mechanical advantage.
