so many questions ... get a beer this is long ...
bob , i talked to peirs and we figured i was making to much HP with everything on to get the benifit i was looking for , lower EGT with his turbo . massdiesel has a superturbo on his truck with a 14 housing , it does spool up very quick .
kat , i've got a wastegated 16 4" outlet housing . completely stock out of the box ...
at work i have the majestic screwed up turbo in as many pieces that you can break it down to . majestic sent it back to me this way when i refused to pay their ransome to fix it . they claim my oil is comtaminated and it caused the turbo to fail . thats funny , my original turbo was working fine when i pulled it off , plus i have now had 3 different turbos on my truck since then , 2 with the same oil that supposedly killed that 40 , no problems , my oil pressure is good . if the oil was as bad as they say i would think i'd need a rebuild on my engine . i'm sending a sample of it out just to see what is in there that supposedly killed it . according to my talks with hemidart , they told him the same thing , his oil caused the failure , but they fixed his . which from what i can tell from his posts was still broken when he put it back on . one thing i noticed with a couple other turbos vs the majestic modified unit was when i put oil in the top it didn't take more than a minute for it to come out the drain side , on the stock hx40 and a piers unit it took over 5 minutes to see it go down from being flush with the top of the boss that the oil line fitting screws into . also the 40 that broke had such a whine and an incredible amount of lag compared to this one .
ok on to more questions ...
kat mine is set to open fully at 40 psi , it begins to open at 20psi , it comes from holset set this way and the adjuster is peened the same as the dodge unit . i'm going to give piers a ring and ask him about setting it , i have one that has the peen defeated and can be adjusted . top end is very good , as is the midrange , it doesn't spool as quickly as my 35 w/12 , but it piulls stronger with less boost . speaking of boost , once it begins to spool up it will hit the max boost , highest i have seen is 40 , at alot less throttle than the 35 , half throttle gets it to 35 and then some , except for the whine this thing kicks a$$ .
work2much , i'll make note of where it starts to build boost tomorrow plus i'll get a chance to see how it tows , i'm renting a bobcat and towing it to and from the rental place .
it peaks at 40 but for some bizarre reason it drops back to 30 quickly , i wonder if it has something to do wit hthe wastegate being open early ? i'm goign to pop on my bleed elbow in the AM and see if it affects it any ?
this is with the dd3's and hot pe only , no EZ , i just bought one off a member that sold his truck , i'll have it next week and be back at peak hp , i am going to try to hit a dragstrip when i go to maryland this weekend , borrow an EZ and see what i get for a time , should be a 13 , as long as i figure out my no 2-3 WOT shift before then ...
miker interesting note on egt wit hthe kwikspool , from what i could tell it was lower than a 35/12 , but not as good as a 4" oulet 40 housing , i may have to get one to try out , but for now the big plus is no more 1500* banzi runs , for now ...
Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
)... with my DD3s and DD TTPM (set to the 3 psi setting) and DTT 93% TC, I have absolutely NO turbo lag. EGTs while cruising the same roads at the same speeds and conditions have been reduced. Tell me, how does it get any better than that? Oh, did I forget mention the increase in performance? 
Too bad I missed ya last Sunday, but I may be over that way again soon. 
, just most of the time.
