Get an E.d. t3 flange with a wastegate provision, done.

...and how do I run the pipe? It would prolly hit the hood if I go over top of the turbo....and not sure how I would get my fat hands into the back to attach anything if I plumbed it towards the firewall, and around the back...

What size? 38mm...40?

What manifolds?
And why you sellin them?

I wanted some Steed Speed manifolds, but I change my frickin mind too much...Run the BD diverter, no...don't....run the T3...maybe try a T4....What about a bigger turbine wheel....oh, what if I just used a bigger housing on the wheel I have...

I........have.........a.........sickness....

I watched an old video from last year, and the 66/71/.80 I ran had less drive pressure with the same total boost to engine...but this setup is way quicker off the line, and has more midrange/topend....so even though this setup has higher drive pressure...it runs way better overall.

Maybe Eric could answer this, as Kevin asked it in a PM, and I took at shot at answering it...

This video was shot in 2wd...rolling into it. When the back tires broke loose, the speedo is moving almost as fast as the rev needle.

So it flies through as many gears as possible, until that magic number of "60 mph" is hit on the speedo, and it locks up into OD. This is where it bogged down in the video.

I don't think anything is wrong with the transmission, or tuning...it's being told that the truck is moving at 60 mph, and to goto lockup.

Eric?
