Yep im at it again..... Finally got the truck running after 30+ days of down time. I did a bronco tank swap w/ a 5/8" pickup tube, 160 gph 15psi holley lift pump feeding 2 superduty pumps in parallel w/ 1 feeding each head (can you say no more fp problems!), also added a 71mm hybrid turbo (bean can tell you all the specifics) and last but not least went back to a 3" dp since the 3.5" was always hitting firewall.
Test run 1:
w/o a chip and it would bust the tires loose at anything under 30-35 mph, believe you me that got my attention quick! I was seeing about 32 psi max and NO smoke. The damn 3.5" dp was hitting the firewall so bad that you couldnt hear the freaking radio and i couldnt make it any better (new turbo must sit just a hair different than h2) so i took the 3" out from under the bench and reinstalled it and fixed a boost leak that i disovered on 1st test run.
Test run 2:
Chip in dd setting and umm well no traction at 55 mph...... I had OD locked out following an X at 55-60 mph and when the opportunity arose i hammered down and passed them. Truck got a little squirrely so i had to back out of it, i thought i broke something since it had never done that at 55 mph before. about another mile down the road i pop an ic boot so i turn around and head back to the shop..... got back to where i passed the X at and holy shyt there was 2 black marks for about 100 ft . Needless to say i havent tried any other chip setting yet. Basically the DD setting is like hitting the nitrous with the hybrid h2e. I saw a max of about 47 psi boost in the dd setting, with the h2 it was usually upper 30's. Heck i rarely saw 47 psi on nitrous with the h2e, this truck is a freaking animal! This weekend Tony and I are going to get together and dyno tune this biotch, i think its time to turn down the dd setting a bit lol. Call me crazy but im hoping for 600+ on fuel and 700+ on one stage of spray.:eek: :D
