Pretty Please, Adrian I need a Turbo and intake manifold. Pretty PLEASE.
I tried to get a MDW Stage 1 to run on my GOGO manifold...seems people were too busy to care. Now look what's being said....
On an OEM manifold I'm guessing the Stage 2 will push easily to 500 with supporting tuning/mods. With a GOGO type manifold I think it will be DAMN close if not past 500 w/supporting mods.
See if it were me I'd tell you to either pound sand, take my numbers for what they were worth, or go get a turbo and run it with your truck on a track yourself.
I get what guys are getting at with only using dyno numbers and not providing any track numbers, which is why I say to ONLY use a verified and respectable dyno w/ respectable dyno operator (which to me is Bill at PHP). I say this because calculators can vary by at least 15hp which still has to be taken with a grain of salt IMO. So at the end of the day some can say "only track results for me" and others can say "a dyno number is good enough for me". I know for me, I am not an experienced track racer so whatever results I got with my truck on the track may or may not be the actual power my truck is capable of producing so for me I would rather have a respectable dyno operator tell me what I am making and call it a day. JMO.
Yes I agree as well that the 500hp title should be reserved until the turbos actually produce that.
I dont know... How about ask Elite how they make their turbos and see what you get???
How informative...
Ok how about the fact that they dont cost what elite charges. :stupid:
Next, Elite uses a different turbine wheel (10 blade as opposed MAD's 13 blade) as well as a different size too. As far as I know, Elite does not use dmax turbos for their powerstroke turbos. I have no idea where you would have gotten this from.
Now once the "Stage 3" comes out, it will have a larger turbine wheel than Elite's "Powermax-HO".
I'll let MadPowerstroke give specs if he wants to.
How's this for being a little more informative?? fftopic
When was that?? Did you call?? What exactly did you try to do to get one?? Adrian is a one man band and up until just recently has been swamped with trying to get these things brought to the market. I can assure you that he hasnt been dicking the dog on this and if you are serious about getting one, PM either him or me and I'll give you his phone number and then you can call him yourself. Otherwise dont be a b!tch.
Look, All th eguys who have been busting our asses testing these things have been given a lot of crap and I'm sure Nate is just reacting to ALL the negativity. Nothing personal. I can tell you right now that if one more person PM's me asking me to "Get Adrian to Hook me up with a turbo", I'm gonna lose it. We're trying our best to provide all the info we can on a product that we truly believe in. This guy is making turbo's that out perform and cost less, we're beating the hell out of them to prove the quality. We don't have the cash or resources that a larger company would, but we're trying our best. Just gets a little overwhelming sometimes.
I think someone needs to slow their roll here. You come off as a real tool in this thread.
It has a rather large turbine...
Waiting on track mph coupled with vehicle weight....
I got ya man and see what you're saying and definitely apologize both to you and 09stroker for the unnecessary sarcasm. I guess my sh!t meter was pegged was all. :fustrate: :gun:
There has just been a lot of hard work in both research and testing these things so when one becomes involved in something they believe in they naturally become defensive of it (still not an excuse to be a dick). So again I apologize and will strive to be both informative and constructive. :toast:
The LLY is .5mm larger on the compressor than the LBZ duramax turbos.
No one is disagreeing with that, we're just trying to know what you know. If your homework was done correctly, the turbo's should be awesome and your work should speak for itself. You just have a very anxious crowd here who want to know as much as possible. :toast:
If you get a stage 1 do you have a choice between the 2 or do you get what you get?
Not sure I understand,PM me and explain what you want.Thanks
Mad- Don't worry about your grammar bro. I'm usually a little intoxicated when i get on here so it usually makes perfect sense!! :toast:
Keep up the good work!!!
