A Team Turbo

[NVW]

I just installed the ATT and I like it. Boost at 65 mph is 1-2 psi, a drop of about 2 psi. WOT boost hit 15 psi, it remains more consistent, no WG to dump boost. EGT's at cruise seem about the same but climb slower at WOT, maybe the -30*C temps. have some bearing. I wanted to make runs with the scanner hooked up to measure before and after, IAT, boost and EGT's with and without a load. In this cold I lost interest in doing extras. I think this turbo is going to be a winner. Slim and TD did their research.:thumbsup: Leo

Truck feel quicker?

More sluggish off the line?

Black smoke?

 

[NVW]

I think it's going to be quicker over all. I never floored it from a stop, but did at about 20 mph and it broke the tires loose for a bit, didn't notice any smoke. It's quiet, I can hardly hear it even when it was at 15 psi. Leo

Thanks Chris, everything fit good, the only issues were lining up the exh. dp. and the oil drain tube was a bugger to remove until I cut off the rubber hose at the block, it was old and didn't flex.

Looks good! I am currious to see how it does w/ your fuel economy?

 

[NVW]

I think it will improve, there has to be less restriction. 2psi less boost at cruise and the exhaust seems louder. Improved mileage and better pulling is what I'm looking for.

It wasn't that long ago that it was cleaned, country roads I guess.

Yeah Jim, I never speak it any more. Matuva may have been #1 on the list but I was #2, what does that make me? Come on over anytime. Leo
