Last weekend I got around to installing the #10 plate in my truck... WOW what a difference it made. Its in the stock position with the housing full forward and the star wheel against the front of the housing. No problems with smoke until I get on it... then it will smoke but normal take offs... no problem. I went from 32lbs of boost to 36-38. .

The EGT's are not a problem running empty. . I will know more about the towing EGT's tonight when I hook to our 30' 5er and head down the freeway.

Also this weekend BPine will be helping me do the 3k GSK... It should be fun...

What else do you have in addition to the #10 plate? Big exhaust pipe? Different turbo??

10 plates are awesome! I guess I have had mine for like a year now, and love every minute of it!!!! then the delivery valves are the smoke makers! Good luck and I hope you find the sweet spot for that 10 plate. .

This weekend I got a lesson in installing a set of 3k GSK. . from Piers no less. . or and I cant forget Bpine(Blair) and Harry from PDR. Installed them from the top with no problems.

With the #10 in stock position with the housing full forward,star wheel all the way forward and on full turn pre-load on the diaphram. . WOW what a difference in the way it tows our 5th wheel.

And yes I did find the sweet spot. . instock position. I hit the go pedal and I get a whoof of black and it clears right up. .
