I seriously hate to have to ask this but someone has to..she whistle a little more? :lookaround:

He made a post somewhere that there was a noticeable difference in turbo whistle inside the cab. I doubt it changed the exhaust note though. I've ridden in a truck with this setup. It was an F-450 with about 15,000 lbs behind it. Truck had a 210 tow tune loaded up and the turbo sounded really good inside the cab.

what jeff said. 20psi and above sounds good inside. don't know if you can hear the change outside or not. I can't drive and listen at the same time, and nobody is driving my truck. Its just a louder turbo. Still sounds silent compared to my 6.0 powermaxx...

if you care about the sound , buy high or max powers....

It'd probably sound perfect with my exhaust system.

Did some towing on the highway today. Nothing real heavy, about 8k. about 120 miles round trip. Still on the 310 tune. Everything was perfect. Still have not seen a downside to the turbo. Loving it. WOT 54psi boost, 54psi ebp.

My truck from the end of march to the end of Oct and sometimes into Nov is hauling a 36ft enclosed all around the east coast on the weekends. I would say that is 80+ percent of what my truck is used for. I wanted a little more than your average tuned truck, yet not hurt its reliability or towing ability. I think this was the perfect set up. Just need to get the trans done and it should be perfect.

Take a picture of your setup when you have some time. Sounds like a nice deal.

I love the red FX4 trucks! Yours is a twin to mine except for the CC. It's good to know that there is another manual shift 4wd truck out there. Everyone thinks mine is strange because it doesn't have the electric shift. http://i1103.photobucket.com/albums/g464/Beans71086/ba976e57.jpg

Haha i think my truck has every option except the electric shift 4wd.

Jeff@Spartan · Nov 20, 2011

With all the problems I've had over the years with electronic, I would much rather have manual 4wd.

I didn't choose it, but I was happy to see it in the truck. I do have to say. I hate getting caught off guard for a race with the hubs un locked. Although. I have not run into a truck I could not launch easy in 2x4 play catch up and drive right by.

Got the 310 shifting good today (things are best before they blow up they say). Got a 0-100 pass with clean shifts. All I can say is wow

I really can't imagine a regular cab with 1000hp. It was 55 degrees out. High egt of 1075, 55 boost, 55.4 ebp. Damn fast. Going to talk myself into dropping back to the 250 tune before I break it. Everything as a package works really good. So much better than the days of the 250 tune and 1500 egt by 75mph

Jeff@Spartan · Nov 20, 2011

That is awesome information Sean. Can't wait to get my 71mm!

it wont make 650... my high powers sure as hell dont. i would say 570 being average for 310/ ID race/ hs 300 .... if you hit 590-600 its a slam dunk victory. mustangs can be very unforgiving.

Just thought it was funny that we were all thinking the same thing just a few days ago...
