Tst?!

[CATCRACKER]

where are all of these boxes?

 

[Agades]

sounds like the boxes are all ready for shipping but the wire harness supplier screwed up

 

[98slushbox]

yeah, thats the story i heard too. has there been a new shipping date set yet?

 

[CATCRACKER]

yea i heard the same thing several weeks ago. whats up now?

 

[CATCRACKER]

someone PM'ed me and wish to remain anano. but he said he talked to a guy that had injectors and a TST box that was putting out 600hp. he said this guy wants to get to 800hp. we must have some 3rd genners out there secrectly wanting to have the highest hp but are keeping it quiet. that sucks!

 

[XcumminsX]

800 hp... ... LOL yeah ok what trans would they even use...

 

[Tomeygun]

my latest call to TST informed me that the harnesses are almost here - on week at the most - the wait it of course killing my slowly

 

[HoleshotHolset]

800hp wouldn't be out of the question for a NV5600 with a good clutch... .



Or a NV4500 with all the good shafts and a good clutch... .



Or an all-billet 48RE... .

NV5600 would hold 800 ponies. but and i say but you can desrtoy them my same buddy who twisted his crank with 380hp killed his 6speed and is on his 3rd clutch!

Question about theses boxes. I am not familiar with the 24v and electronic control boxes, so my question is what do you really expect from any box? I mean the rating that a company gives, is it the actual numbers to expect from the dyno or are they at the flywheel #'s? I would think that the 150/500 box from tst or anyone else would be more like 120-130/450 area and not the full # that the company says. Do each company read their # different?( like peak hp gain or maybe the most hp gained at any certain point)



Am I correct in saying that a stock truck dyno's around 260-280hp(not sure what tq runs on the dyno) then you add a 150/500 box. You dont end up with a 410-430hp truck right? It might be more like 380-400 hp. ALl of this assuming you have enough air flow and exhaust flow.



I just don't see how people think you can add a 150hp box , 100hp injectors and think it is going to be a 555hp truck. Explain it to me so I can understand what to expect in "REAL" numbers from the addition of a box or injectors.





THANKS

I also know someone in Texas with a 3rd gen bumping 600hp that wishes to be anonomus , can't spell, and that's with a ez and h2o. Have ridden in it an all I can say is WOW!





Jared

 

[Tomeygun]

well i know that the guy at TST said he dyno'ed at 998 torq. . that is about 500 over stock, right?



(498 + 500) ??

 

[98slushbox]

Wow!! those are some big numbers for not many upgrades. i cant wait any longer for the tst either. hope it gets here soon so i dont have to go trade for a dmax and stack two boxes and get 500rwhp. haha ok, i guess i wont do that.

800 hp... ... LOL yeah ok what trans would they even use...



Well, Sickly uses a NV4500 with Standard Trans parts, and a reworked Sachs clutch.

 

[78repowerwagon]

How are these anonomus guys running a box that has not been sold yet?

well i know my ho puts out about 255 hp at the rear wheels stock. I guess all the companies only go by rwhp. so with dd3;s they add around 100 rwhp. The box adds 150 hp. so 250 + 100 + 150 = 500 hp... then with all that you MUST have exhaust and intake. With that combo i am guessing you get around 30 rwhp (anyone wanna back me up and throw me down here) so that would be 530 rwhp... Then with the turbo upgrade you MUST do to handle egts... Im thinking that will give you 20 - 30 rwhp so right there is around 550-560 rwhp... ( if i am wrong please post it) also if you add a cummins tow hitch... well thats an extra 200 rwhp so im guessing around 750 rwhp

I think our fuel pumps have a hard time delivering enough fuel for anything over about 400 RWHP. I once read that adding a fueling box is pretty much the limit. If you then add injectors w/o a new fuel pump you'll only get about 30 to 40 H. P out of them.

 

[scotty1]

I've seen fuel pressures hit zero and past that on a few trucks with just pressure boxes.

 

[mehaffydr]

Just remember that you can't buy parts that show a specific horsepower gain and keep putting them on and just adding up the horsepower. sorry it just doesnt work that way. Once you have added extras like injecors or a box the components added after will not give the full gains advertised on top of what you have already done.

Anything from Dodge really. With a clutch, the manuals will take it:



NV4500 - Joe Donnelly, 799rwhp, stock trans w/aftermarket clutch

NV5600 - Steve Covalt, 700+rwhp (Heberam), stock trans w/aftermarket clutch



With aftermarket parts, the auto's will take it too. Both of our 2001. 5 company trucks were upgraded with DTT stuff (but not the billet or cryoed stuff), and took 740hp from one truck and 787hp from the other.
