OK as some of you know i made some recent changes and finally got it buttoned up. list of things that have changed
Switched from a 71mm vgt to a 63mm vgt (from high powers)
Switched to elite/rudy's dual fuelers
added a no limit intercooler pipe
increased nozzle size from 110s to 150s
changed some air filter piping stuff
removed electric fans and installed stock fan
Old air filter set up behind the head light, had a problem with it sucking in water and then making a huge restriction. collapsed the filter on the dyno one time it was so bad
new filter design wraps around farther to the back and should be clear of any water that might get sent thru the grill or headlight
here is the newest set up , filter is much bigger than the last one too. Filter minder seams happy so far.
HEre is the old piping and black painted compressor housings
some new pictures, unfortunatly i made the pipe one piece and i made it without the pipe out of the high pressure turbo and it made too much contact so i had to cut the pipe and add a boot to make it fit, i have already blown the pipe off so im going to have to either weld it back up or fab a new one out of aluminum.
I got the new No limit pipe from mike as well, first one for dual fuelers and it fits like a dream, barley had to trim the radiator support and everything lined up great.
here is a pic of the dual fuelers without the radiator in
So far im loving the set up, builds boost fast, this morning at 1300 rpm i rolled into it at about 20 psi of boost, and i know it is a towable set up again which im excited about. Egt's never broke 1450 on the extreme street, we will see what more fuel does to that.
I was really worried about the smoke with 150s, but its actually about like driving a stock turbo'd truck, and im not even joking.
Truck pulls hard, makes about 48 psi of boost so far, with no gate tuning at all, back pressure is well in check at 52psi absolute. Still running a small extreme street thats only 1.75 ms of pw, plan on running race soon but the weather has been poopy here.
Plans are to put it on the dyno when i can, and the weather permits, maybe this weekend but i dont know if the weather will cooperate. Im also going to try and get a cruising around town video of it with a go pro near the tail pipe to see that 150s can be a dd, and as a matter of fact i think 200s would do just fine, as this set up smokes way less than 110s did with any other turbo set up i've tried so far.
