Turbo kit testing, what you guys wanna see?

[MorganY]

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.

I see. If my access is back up by this evening i'll check for any related concerns. Seems too soon for a traditional failure, could be though. Obviously, tuning needs to be looked at first as well.

Plenty of trucks prove otherwise.

Just been seeing a few people with the 6R140 blues lately.

Yeah the truck had 27k on it when I tuned it. I am not easy on stuff. The tuning may be another issue but I put the regular cabs trans to death the same way in 1k miles and it only had 75k when I deleted it. Both ran h&s trans tunes. But the company we are working with who is developing the trans parts says that 4th gear has been their biggest problem to get to hold.

Thats the only TSB i could find regarding 3rd gear malufunction. Hope it helps.

S467 if you are looking to go bigger.

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

:whs:

 

[bigrpowr]

its crazy, and i'm learning as i go here, but the fact these things will make 625-650 with a 65mm turbo, stock lpfp and injectors, with just a very simple dual pump install, is nuts. not too mention spoolup with the non vgt is fast as $hit just shocks me. this engine design is masterful. the dual pump kit is one high pressure line, a filter, bracket and cp3 .. about 3 hours to install. the motor design is provng extremely superior to the 6.4 in its characteristics, minus the flaws of weak injection pump and rods. but rods seem to be living now with less bp and more power.

Well it's still alive. Call me crazy but it's going to Detroit tomorrow, pulling a trailer to boot... Never been accused of being afraid.

Your track record with long trips to get trucks sucks. Maybe I'm the bad luck though.....

Picking up a forum members truck for a little R&R

Haha, to pick up a truck.

So, I made it there no problems. Grossing 13k @ 75 mph on cruise it totaled 13.4 mpg on the way there. Set on the highest setting on the minimax, cruise control 75 mph with 3.55 and 35's it never peaked past 900 degrees.

Heading back i must say we are at 20k lbs and this thing is an animal! 6th is locked out because of my high gearing and big tires. Runs 2200 @ 75mph, turbo is always on top and boy does it have a lot more towing power! You can accelerate 3/4 throttle on the highest power setting (which is a lot) up the on ramp and it won't go past 1000 degrees. Only breaks a 1k if run at WOT on the highest setting at that weight. Needless to say for stock fuel and a 66 it surpassed my expectations. I figured it would be a little more laggy and higher EGT's. I was wrong. I may have a hard time not leaving this setup on this truck.

I swore I was just gonna tune and delete my 6.7 :fustrate:

 

[MadDiesel73]

^^^^ :fustrate:

 

[MadDiesel73]

i would love to see some direct comparisons between the 66/74 .91 and the 64.5/68 .91

Spool/boost/bp/hp/tq/drivability etc etc.

ive herd the factory intercooler is a bottleneck after about 600hp which can be done with the 63.

 

[Morgan@Midwest Diesel & Auto]

Really as well as the cast 66 spools anything smaller or billet/fmw/gtx etc is only gonna spool better. The purpose of doing the 66 large turbine and bigger housing was to see how it would react. As impressive as it is I know the smaller/better chargers will be as impressive. I'm more wondering how far you can go like 372 ish before spool up really suffers?

 

[bft blue oval boys]

I like the sound of that! Why don't you test it out and let us know? :thumbup:

[weapons120]

I hate the factory turbo and would like to upgrade it eventually. I tow very heavy at times(38k truck, trailer, and load). Would a 366 work for my needs ?

 

[3brorce]

Heavy tow pig I would look into a S464/83/.9
