I have a customer who is stuck in San Dimas with a trans issue and I was hoping someone could recommend a shop/person who can check it out. Thanks! Erik

I was at 520/1060 with the stock turbo and silly drive pressures at 47psi. Best previous time was a 13. 4x at 108mph on street tires. I added the SuperBSpecial and pulled out 604/1193 on the dyno and hit the track. Traction has been the killer for my poor 2wd. with a 2. 4 60' as my best...

Our SPRING FLING dyno day is scheduled for May 3rd from 8am through 5pm. At our last event we ran 38 trucks and hundred attended. Three runs for $75, with first and second place trophies for each brand of truck. There are also two classes: Street (single charger, no drugs) and...

Both Adam's VP44 record setting truck and Tom Collins' record setting 12v are featured on page 69 (go figure) Congrats to both and thanks for representing LCD well!

I have pics of most things, but we have two nice front seats, one with power. Door panels (power and non), a nice tailgate, taillights, infiniti head unit, one good running 12v complete, one 2wd trans with a transfer case (PTO I guess) Lots of switches, a crack-free dash, cluster, etc. Anyway...

WINTER WILDNESS is ON!!! January 18th. Its a Sunday to be respectful of our new neighbors. First truck at 8am, last truck at 4:30. We will run as many as we can. $75 for 3 runs. Since most of you have shirts already, we discounted the runs, and you can buy a new shirt if you like for $10...

Just got done wiping down the interior in my truck and noticed a thin crack about 6" long on the topside of the passenger dash. Won't show up in pics yet, but I am wondering how many other folks are seeing this. #@$%!

Hey there, our company is now Left Coast Diesel, so I would love it if my handle were Erik@LCD instead of what it is now. Can you help? Thanks!

The first annual Paul Starzyk memorial dyno event! This event will be held in honor of Sgt. Paul Starzyk, of the Martinez police department. Paul was killed 9/6/08 while responding to an "active shooter" situation. Because of his heroic efforts and ultimate sacrifice, he saved the lives of...

Looking for some help here, this is one we haven't seen before. Have an 04. 5 manual truck that has a cyclic rattle at idle. Every 7 seconds or so, it has what sounds like an injector or lifter rattle. Hooked up to the scan tool, this sound corresponds to a change from 5500psi (ish. . normal...

You asked for it, you got it! June 7th at Left Coast Diesel (formerly Tri-Valley Performance) First truck on at 8:30 (unless Ron comes down at crack-of-dawn) We'll run till we drop. $75 for 3 runs, no tuning in between without prior consent (gotta keep things rolling) First come...

Alrighty then... by popular demand the next TVP dyno day will take place on Saturday, April 5th from 9am-4pm (or whenever everyone is done). We'll have some food and beverages (not the alcoholic kind, sorry) New format: HP only runs (like most of them were last time after our sensor got...

07 5. 9 auto wont turn over or allow communication with OBD port. Port has power, I have radio/dash lights. No Gear indication. Truck recently had trans work and some gauge reconfiguration, but they were all happy and working for over a week. Recently downloaded new smarty program, but that...

Did some testing of the GDP intake to add to the data we collected for the ATS, aFe and CFM+. Should have a BD to test soon also. Check it out at: trivalleyperformance.com - Diesel Projects

We tested the Grid delete on a stock 2003 HO with a 6-speed. Basically no mods except a Predator tuner. The grid alone actually made a little Hp and TQ, especially down low. Article is up on our website under "Diesel Projects"

Just finished testing the ATS, aFe and CFM+ intake manifolds on my truck as part of a test with Adam from WINspeed. The results were pretty impressive by all accounts, and I think they will make more top end with better fueling. The complete article is here: trivalleyperformance.com -...

OK folks, just confirming that the next Tri-Valley Performance dyno day will be January 5th. We will start a little earlier this time so that we can get more trucks on the rollers. As we announced, we now have the trick load unit installed and we can read up to 1500/1500. I want to see...

So we modded my CP3 yesterday (slotted the FCA and ported the pump). Took great care and time, especially once we got the FCA out and the piston was sticky in the bore. Got everything polished up and the piston sliding smoothly and reinstalled. Truck runs great, no apparent surging or other...

Let's get it on! Wednesday night is the last Wednesday Nite Drags event at Sac. Raceway. Gates open at 4pm, and you can run until 10pm for $15. Who is in?? A bunch of us from Tri-Valley Performance and Adam and some of his WINspeed cohorts are headed up.
