First Boosted Launch with new setup

[Extended Power]

Problem is it all takes valuable time.

If I go with the T4 x .83 divided housing, I may as well go with new divided up pipes as well.

This $h1t just never ends man...

yep...thats what I'm doing. we'll see how it goes

Kevin's setup seems to be running good with his open .70...

That's just it...everyone's twins seem to work great except mine.

Maybe I'm too picky...can't leave anything alone...whatever it is, it's driving me crazy.

And these gd BD Power diverter valves are a huge POS.
Took this one off again, and it's seized....again. Won't be putting it back on ever again.

Just about ready to get the truck running, and trade it in for a gas jobby...something like a supercharged Dodge Viper SRT-10 crewcab.:blitzed:

I think your having bad luck because of that diverter valve. Chris B's truck had issues with the 64/71/.76 and diverter valve..Maybe before you jump to the T4 try a T3 63/68/.70T3 open and cover all the smaller bases first before you step up.. have you spoke with shawn since you put the 66 on?

Maybe it was just my T4 setup..but it didn't do jack sh*t for me. Had the special up pipes and the whole nine yards.

edit: I forget you have the dual pumps, T4 may not be a bad idea..if you're wanting some serious power, but it sounds like you want something that lights quick

Morgan I think its an apples to oranges comparison with that garret turbo vs a BW turbo. I have a 73mm turbine and a .91 housing and it spools great!

I think the .83 is going to be a much better setup for Ivan.

I have a brand new divided .80 housing for the 68mm exhaust wheel to try.

I will be putting my modified BD power adaptor in again. (the one that I pulled the Diverter valve out of, and ported it out.)

The 63/68/70 was great everywhere...and if I never had all these damn gauges, i would have left it alone.

So pending on how much the up pipes and T4 housing is, will decide on if I go with them or not. But not until I try the .80 housing on the 68 exhaust wheel.

Ya I hear ya, I am just so against trying different setups now after what I have been doing this past year lol. I'm interested in proven setups for all of the different applications like kevins compounds, or Shawn's on his dually you know? Sorry for the slight de rail.

Ivan best of luck with everything. I'm sub'd to see what the outcome is of the 68/.80

 

[Extended Power]

I'm not trying to mislead anyone with so-called "proven" setups.
I just happen to have taddle tale gauges on everything, and it shows that my setup could be better.
Like I said before...if I drove around without any gauges, this would be the "HOT" setup.

Still waiting for an updated tune from Eric. I want the shift points changed a bit for intown driving.
With the Extreme X, does everyones shift at 10mph, 15mph, 30mph, and then 50mph?

Running the .80 housing on the 68mm exhaust wheel now.

Backed the waste gate spring off 5 more turns, and now I can hold 30 psi drive pressure while having 30 psi of boost...10 psi of that is from the primary.

.....gettin better....wife is scared to drive with me anymore...:shocked:
