Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) New Mods

[PKirby]

Today I installed a 3k GSK, and the Super 40/HX35 hybrid turbo with a 12cm exhaust housing and drilled the divider. I had recently installed a 100 plate and 330 marine injectors. The truck feels much quicker but the throttle is a little on the touchy side to suit me. The turbo spools very quick but levels off at 30psi. Now I need to get a tachometer.

Did your EGT go up?



Thanks, Tom

If the trottle is too touchy try backing the springs off one notch. Sometimes it's a balancing act between max RPM and smooth throttle response.

The EGT hits 1200 fast and then slower to 1300. I don't remember it getting over 1200 with the #6 plate and WH1C.

My original set of springs had no shims and they had a 2 piece seat with an extra inside spring slightly larger than the stud, (total of 4 per side). The instructions stated most stock stud protrusions were approx . 060, mine was closer to . 045. The pump came off of a 96 Dodge auto.

Does loosening them make it rev higher?
