bt408,



You don't mention upgrading injectors along with the pump and turbo mods. You're pushing more air without increasing the fuel to the cylinder. If I'm not mistaken (and believe me, I am often) more air without more fuel won't give you what you want.



Help me out, guys! I'm treading water here. :-laf

no injectors yet, it seems to have plenty of fuel cause it hazes black at full throttle and when loaded.

Well, the way it was explained to me is that a bigger turbo needs more fuel. Or better put, more fuel needs a bigger turbo. They go together.



I also don't see gauges mentioned. Did you have boost and temp readings from before and after doing the turbo & pump?



I'm really not the best one to respond to this, but thought I'd try to get the ball rolling.

Yes I Have Gauges, Exhaust Temps Ok So Far. I Turned The Star Wheel Down 1/2 Turn And Moved The Cone To The Richest Side. I Also Ground The Washer Down To . 020". Seems To Be More Responsive And Smokes A Little More. Thanks

That's kind of an open question... what specifically do you want to accomplish?

I Was Just Looking For Free Power, I See Alot Of Signatures Have These Mods Listed. I Am Not Very Familiar With This Pump. I Tow Often With This Truck. Thanks For Your Help.
