110lbs of boost...

[CHolman]

I was at the auto hobby shop last night here at MCAS Cherry Point, NC and this guy came over and was asking my about my truck and if I've seen this white 2000 24valve running BD twins and that, that guy was running 110PSI of boost, I laughed and said that was BS. Also that the motor was machined to have 44 to 1 compression ratio at idle and my BS meter was pegged. This guy insisted that it was all ture. I got a hoot out of this, thought ya'll might too. :-laf Also I was telling the guy's that work there and arguing with me, that the stock comporession ratio is like 17 to 1 on HO and like 16 to 1 on standard Cummins and they said that was all wrong that diesels run at least 24 to 1. I was born in the dark but it sure the hell was't last night.

Yeah I'd have to wear boots for that conversation.

Hey, that's my truck!! It's NO BS!! J/K :-laf



On a more serious note, I live in the area, work at CP, and have seen your truck running around. There are several BOMBers in the area, and we frequent Coastal Plains, dyno days, etc. Shoot me a message if you want to join in the fun.

The compression ratio is way off but there are 5. 9 Cummins motors running over 100 psi of boost.

Not from a set of BD twins, that's for sure.
