Jerry how's the truck coming along need pic of the new stuff

08BIGRIG · Jun 19, 2013

I got the 30% nozzles in the truck and a few other small things taken care of, but still waiting on the rest of the parts from Elite for the turbo kit to install. I was told that the stuff will be getting shipped out this week so I am really looking forward to that.

Things are starting to come alive with the truck again here. I got a call on Tuesday and turbos are said to be shipping out the next day. This means that I will have them for next week. I also made a call to Morgan at Midwest Diesel for some 30% nozzles and I was blown away with his service. I literally got off the phone and a few minutes later I was sent a tracking number and a invoice. Great customer service gets you a long ways with me.:toast: Thanks again to both Elite Diesel and Midwest Diesel. I am excited to get this back on the road.

Hey, if you need any pics of piping with the HP set up let me know. I have quite a few as far as wg etc goes. Should help you out if need be. Just send me a PM.

Thanks Erik I really appreciate that. I do have a few questions as far as the gate setting goes.

any progress jerry?

08BIGRIG · Jun 29, 2013

It sounds like I will have the rest of the high power kit on Monday of this week. I have been waiting on all the parts as I was at a standstill until the rest of the kit comes. This week should be sweet though I am hoping. If everything comes, I will be working on the truck and hopefully have it running for the weekend. I talked with Mike Haller for bit this week on the gating and I should have a good grasp on that. He was a big help and knows his chit man!!!! As soon as all the parts get here, it will be game on.

Open is the regulator screwed all the way in clockwise? Or out all the way?

depends on how you have it plumbed. iirc on mine it was counter clockwise that had it open. i gated to the down pipe. well ne time, then the other time i gated between.. i dont recall either variations making one heck of a difference. i know i made dang near 1:1 .. 56/58

Turn the regulator all the way counter clockwise then back clockwise 1 3/4 turns.

webb06 · Jun 29, 2013

Weird. That's nothing like what tadd told me. He said all the counter clockwise and then turn it clockwise 4 full turns.

Are you both gating to the same place. Either to the atmospheric turbo or to the down pipe? Maybe if you are gating to differant places that could be why your not using the same starting point?
