First OBS project, open to guidance

[diesel slacker]

I am doing a build for my buddy, he comes to me, and says " why cant i hang with these other trucks", and whatnot. So I explain to him how to get power properly, because of his limitations (injectors, exhaust, not a lot of boost).
You guys know the drill. So we decide to do it big.
ANY TIPS OR GOOD DEALS on quality parts let me know.
At this time I'm going with a d66 turbo, looking for a deal on some hybrids, and e-fuel, reg return.
Pics are on the way, help me show these Cummings, and "its got a tuner and wicked wheel off the special ford turbo" guys whats up. ullover:

One question at this time, is there anyone in chattanooga who is a psa member. I have people come to me all the time wanting work done

 

[diesel slacker]

Oh yeah any link to getting the intercooler and related parts ill need would be great. i saw a few, but i trust yalls input

 

[diesel slacker]

MY projected parts
d66
17* hpop
dont know whether to diy fuel or buy beans kit
3 inch down pipe to diamond eye exh
looking for 238/100 or 250/200 because turbo will be upgraded later
cac

Any help in any area would be great:thumbup:

 

[Bobby@cp]

Who's tuning you gonna go with? That's a lot of injector for that turbo, I'd go a t4 mount and something like an s366, you'll also need upgraded parts in the trans.

There's a 02 IC on here for 100$ and for fuel system jake at irate makes a nice RR system. For oil can't go Wrong with a t500 pump if your on a budget I have one with 250/200s and it holds over 3k at wot

 

[diesel slacker]

i will do live tuning with beans

 

[diesel slacker]

big turbo will be later on once everything is good

 

[97stoker350]

that thing should rip if its on 33s i know mine does on 40s with my setup. good build, good motivation behind it.

 

[diesel slacker]

would a good 17* hpop work with hybrids

 

[diesel slacker]

come on with the tips because if this truck runs great, ill pick up a lot of work.
I do have a 12 valve dyno proven at garmons 752/1158, and a 6.0 dude dynoed at 462 dont remember the torque, so im not new to the power game.
I just want this to be my show piece

 

[diesel slacker]

Chattanooga sux as far as getting people who understand what it takes to make proper power. OOOOh i roll coal makes me sick. hit me up if you are from chatt area

 

[chromehound]

I'd skip the DiamondEye exhaust and go with somebody else. The setup I put on fit like crap, the clamps wouldn't stay tight, I had to trim the fuel tank strap (that was because the gn was in the way) and modify the T hanger and make a diffrent one for the tailpipe. Others have had good luck but not me.

 

[PSDEng]

My biggest tip....do it right the first time. Get the turbo your buddy wants and not something that will "just get him by" until later.....and 238s are going to get you in the area of 500hp. That won't be quite enough to hang with and 800hp truck

 

[Nodge]

My truck isn't a show piece, but with beans tuning, the 238's and D66, I have embarrassed many newer trucks.

 

[baderic03]

17* pump isn't enough. Run a Srp1.1 hpop, 250/200,studs,910 shimmed springs,push rods,rr fuel system with either a walbro pump or a1000 D66 will hold up with good tunes and injectors turned down. Going to have to build a Trans for it also

 

[Stroker#66]

I've got about 11k in my 600hp set up

 

[diesel slacker]

Well going down to pull the injectors today. This will be the third set of injectors sent to FFD in 2 weeks. It has been slow going due to a new job and owner working out of town.

I have a spare trans to build while we drive the truck on some initial runs for 2-3 weeks. It will be limited to a 5 mile round trip to work and shaking down all the current mods.

My poor buddy is stuck in a honda suv til it gets doneLOL. He is on the road constatly so it will be a bit b4 i can finish the project at his crane shop.

Who is the best on trannys in the chattanooga area or just ship it to bts/ other trans place

 

[97stoker350]

bts I hear is the bees nees
