Where to begin,
I have had the opportunity to drive a lot of truck combinations ranging from mild to wild.
We had exceed the limit of the hx35 , most of our testing showed that the hx35 was good to about 31lbs of boost.
Other opinions vary ranging from 28-34 lbs of boost regarding limitations of the hx35
I did not want an hx40 turbo in my truck , before you guys start on me , i have driven lots of trucks with the hx40 in them,
I find they have too much turbo lag, and so far have not proven to my satisfaction to be reliable.
When Piers approached me with this new turbo i was a little bit reluctant, he made a few claims i didnt quite believe, so i agreed to test it.
We were on our way to Muncie, so i thought it would be a good opportunity for Stefan and I to give it a good run.
Before we installed the turbo, we took our 89% out and put in the 93%.
I chose to test with the 93% converter as it is the tightest converter on the market. With Piers turbo the turbo lag is non -existant.
The boost is up by approx. 6lbs, it lowered the egts by over 150 degrees.
In the quarter mile before the turbo we were at
1400 plus, after the turbo in Muncie Indiana, we were at 1200.
That is with the edge hot box on level 111, the eze box and a set of dd11 injectors, while i do not promote this power combination we do use it for testing.
For the guys worried about smoke, this turbo does an excellent job clearing up that issue.
What i was looking for on behalf of my customers was the lower lower egt's and the spool up time .
This turbo is everything Piers claims it is, i think guys including Piers know that i say exactly what i mean,
Congratulations on your achievement Piers, this turbo is excellent, i wouldnt hesitate to recommend it to guys towing heavy or with hp under 400, or higher elevation trucks.
