Michael, Remember, I told Piers not to send you anymore Hot-Rod parts.



Andrew, try not to get used to those bars.

MDW-Sachs Clutch?

Expound a little bit on this clutch. Is it like a LUX clutch? What is it?

Shripmy,

You better believe it man!



DRR,

She is in here right now!



Mike,

Way too early to tell, but I think the overhead computer went up in MPG which is a good sign. Spool is a tad slower off the line, but it pulls a lot harder accerarating once it leaves. I'll post a thread in a couple of days to let you know the results.

Funny thing was i had to be on the radio so my girl took the truck. I said "See if you notice a difference in the truck. " When she picked me up, she said yeah it takes longer to accerate, it pulls harder. She then went to show me and when she let off the throttle it barked the turbo.

Just don't know if it is a good thing or not yet.

30psi of boost is nice though. I think the wastegate is set up at 30psi.

Andrew, you don't have a wastegate anymore... . LOL



DDR, its the clutch Joe Donnelly sells, its very aggresive and not for the faint of heart, its supposed to hold 500+HP which is the reason I use it. Also you can't expect something to hold that much power and not destroy itself, so buyer beware.

Big John, how do you like that new exhaulst Ray

 

[Big John]

Ray, the exhaust seems to work as advertised. No drone. I adjusted the tip out about 6 or 7 inches this afternoon and the sound in even better than before. I am not sure it is any more quiet than either my BD exhaust or the Janetty one that was on the truck to start with, but the drone at around 1700 and again at 2200 RPM's is gone.



This truck with the VA box on it seems to be fuel rich. I am looking into a boost module to fix this problem and give me a little more power. One can always use "a little more power"!



Big John

 

[Ray Davis]

glad you like it ,always liked mine , drove some trucks with that drone, its a little agavating. you might get a noise that you dont like under heavy load if you dont keep the rpm s up. Ray

Delayed edit

Just caught my goof in my post yesterday. Tried to edit but was pass the deadline but what I meant was IAT not AIT sensors. The IAT changout did cut down some on the smoke and cool down is much faster. Sure hope it helps my sorry M. P. G. It should be really be green here now if rain helps, a 6" rain gauge ran over here in Pasadena this morning... ... ... ... Howard
