Any chance you would test the 64.5FMW?

Mike has one on his now I believe. I may change it up some. But in all reality I don't know that I really want to go smaller. I will be pulling a trailer this weekend so we will de how that goes.

Awesome man, can't wait to get my hands on a kit. As nice as my dually is, it's a dog. LOL

I have two questions:

1. Are you testing this turbo and your compound turbo on stock rods?

2. Any plans of a budget VGT kit in the future?

Other than that, it looks and sounds awesome!

The compounds will be on the race truck with a built engine. Looking for well over 1000hp.

I'll leave the vgt till we see what the 15 stuff comes out with and how reverse compatible they are with the 11-14 models.

I had my mind set on getting a 6.4.... you people are making this very difficult

Sent from a Cummins plant, driving a TDI, wishing it was a Powerstroke

Morgan@Midwest Diesel & Auto · Jan 17, 2014

Well trans is hurt, didn't take long.... Smh

sootie · Jan 17, 2014

j/k buddy. turbo kit looks awesome...

MorganY · Jan 17, 2014

Bummer! That was awfully quick..

Morgan@Midwest Diesel & Auto · Jan 17, 2014

Yeah it's doing exactly what the race truck did. The race truck did not last very long at all once it happened (one day). I don't know why but it's flaring the 3-4 shift bad and directly after it started doing that it started slipping and dropping to first from fourth. The brown truck hasn't got that bad yet. I am going to baby the 3-4 shift and see how it lasts till I get the other trans fixed enough to swap out. Good thing I've got two lol.

Isn't there a TSB for the valve body on the 2011-2012's related to dropping to first in higher gears? I forget if that was the concern or not. I don't have access to PTS right now to check or else I would.

What trans tune are you running ?

lincolnlocker · Jan 17, 2014

Nice looking kit! Is there any issues with the long boot on the intake sucking in at all?

live life full throttle

Damn, so the 6R140 won't really hold much more than the 5R110 does from the sounds of it.

Nice looking kit though Morgan.

Plenty of trucks prove otherwise.

How many miles are on the trans?

If it is the stock H&S tuning I bet that didn't help the transmission live at all. Even in my stock tuned truck it feels like it needs to be firmed up a little bit. At full throttle it doesn't feel like it is shifting hard enough to keep it from slipping.

I'm not sure, I was gonna calm ford and see what tsb's are out on the trans for 11's. It skipped 3rd on a few of the hard launches yesterday and went directly to fourth. I attributed it to the extra power and not relearning it properly. That being said my regular cab did the same on the last couple launches it took then fourth went. I believe the gear skip it it trying to compensate for the higher rpm and no shifting quick enough. It freaks out and slams two gears ahead to catch up. Then after a few of those it wears on fourth gear clutch every hard and they start slipping.

H&S. Yeah I know I need to talk to Matt. Just hadn't got that far.

Morgan@Midwest Diesel & Auto · Jan 17, 2014

It is shifting better at mild throttle. If I baby it too much it flares way worse. Gonna keep of the wot runs till I get a trans ready next week or so.

Thanks for the compliments.

I do honestly think it's more of an 11 thing that the trans itself the later ones seem to be holding more. Who knows at this point really.
