Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Need More Air

[Turbo Tim 1]

Last week I put in my used DD2's, and then yesterday I got home and my Drag Comp upgrade was waiting on the porch for me Oo. This truck rocks, from personal experience, if you think you have a cool truck with just an Edge Comp may I suggest some injectors! I had never seen my EGT's above 1150-1200 degrees even while towing (with comp lowered) but now with the sticks and the drag comp I took off from a stop in second and got into it, by the time I shifted into 5th I looked at the EGT's and was at 1500 degrees. Also my 40 psi boost gauge is maxed out with the poor little stock HX-35. I need more air. Anyone use any of Advanced Diesel Technology's Turbos? The truck is a daily driver / sled puller beginner. This thing rocks... . well at least for this week. :-laf

I'd say search e-bay for turbos, there are tons of reman and new turbos in all price ranges.

As for one thing at a time, and this has nothing to do with the turbo conversation. I set up a savings account that gets $100 a week (calculator said that was a safe number so that I would still have money for bills and food and such) for nothing but mods. Works pretty good, I wait until there is enough in there for whatever I want, and by the time I'm used to it, there is enough in there for the next thing I want to buy. Pretty nice, I would suggest it for anyone BOMBing on a budget. I'm about to buy a 12 valve, so my "truck fund" is just going up and up and my truck is staying as it is.
