Silver 62 is on along with smarty and ats manifold

So far after a 10 mile breakin period with comp 2-2 smarty on #6 this turbo flat out screams I almost need ear plugs in the cab until I'm at cruising speed. First couple of upshifts the turbo barked really loud I thought I blew a hose I pulled over instantly after the first time and saw nothing then drove farther but it must have loosened up it went away that scared me a bit. I have an appointment tomorrow to upgrade to 150 BD injectors but I will drive it today and decide if I want to jump up to bigger ones or not to see where my egts will be with the 90's yet. Just set the smarty to #8 and will drive it about 80 miles today and see how it all feels I might even turn the comp off and try #9 and see how that feels. I will let you know later tonight. So far it seems to spool about the same as the super B to about 10-15 then it jumps a lot faster. more to come tonight. :D

Tried smarty #8 comp 2-2 75mph egts 8-900 some 1k. very peppy. tried comp off smarty #9 egts went up about 100 and less peppy than with comp. Egts a little lower or about the same as stock manifold and Bd single but spool up is same at lower rpm but definately faster than the BD single hands down after around 1800 rpm so all who say the BD single is not going to be beet in spool up you all need to take the silver62 out for a spin. The highest rpm so far is about 2500 don't want to give anymore for a couple hundred miles. will be hooking a 18 foot empty enclosed trailer in an hour or so and will pull it about 30 miles will do it on comp alone.
