    Going crazy, need to blow something up...

    Just got a divorce, and I need to do something stupid lol! Looking for ideas to make good power from a 7.3 in my 02 F450, it's already a Hoss, I've currently got Rosewood stage 3 injectors and a Hydra with custom tunes on it and a powermax turbo. I've blown through multiple transmissions and...

    Journal VS BB?

    Hi guys, I'm looking at playing with a turbo that I have been running for awhile, the engine setup is changing drastically and I thought I'd just give my turbos a little boost while I'm deep into things. Not having $3500+ to throw at a turbo right now, and having a full machine shop at my...

    Twin Troubles

    I'm building a truck for a customer, a work/tow rig. F350/5.9/Allison. I just got the twins set up and finally started the engine and can't build boost. I've got a S472 (83/1.10) over a S300g with the 12Cm housing. Got it timed at 16 deg, has a Colt Cam, and when I put it in gear I can get maybe...

    How fast can I spin a CP3?

    I'm gear driving a CP3 on an old Detroit 2 stroker, or at least I want to. I'm constrained to a a 2:1 gear ratio with the crank, and my design RPM for the engine is 3750. That means I'm going to be running the CP3 at 7500 RPM. Granade? Anyone spun one until it floated the plungers? Or is that...

    Twins Suggestions

    I'm tired of running under/oversized turbos. just dang tired of it. So now I hope I have tried enough combos that you guys can throw some numbers out for me based on what I have run! Btw, this is on my stupid little detroit powered toyota... Ran a 351CW over an HX40, hot damn instant spool...

    Budget Badass 02 Jetta TDI Build

    I've been rolling this idea over in my mind for about a week, and am almost ready to roll her into the shop to get started. I have a BHW (2.0 balance shaft engine from a passat) out back with less than 100K on the clock, that had an injector go bad and broke a rod. I'm thinking of using...

    Transmission engauge question.

    Is there a way to **** things up enough with EFI on a 6spd Allison to allow the transmission to go into gear at a higher RPM. I know it may be dangerous for parts, bet can I change the calibration to allow neutral to 1st at 2000 RPM? I'm having a hard time spooling in front of the sled, and at...

I put scan tool on and found FICM voltage was very slow to build, se we did HG, studs, egr delete, oil coooler, and I rebuilt the ficm...

    Compressor wheel sleeve adapter

    I'm wanting to swap compressor wheels around on a T04e turbo this weekend, but the new wheel I have is a 7.48 bore and the shaft is the standard 6.35mm. It seems I have seen sleeves advertised somewhere to adapt wheels, but can't for the life of me find anything like that now. What I'm trying...

    Turbo overspeed on free flow or block

    I have always thought that any impeller type pump would freewheel when the flow was capped and pressure was the greatest, and be under maximum load at maximum flow low pressure. This would suggest to me that a cold side pipe blowing off would NOT overspeed the turbo. I was just reading the other...

    Detroit Diesel, breaking cranks, what to do...

    Well guys, (and gals!) I never though i'd be here, but I'm breaking stuff... I'm running a 3-53 detroit in a toyota, with twins, and 155mm of fuel. I have the high speed limit on the govorner disabled, but it doesn't like to twist past 3800 without popping and missing, I assume it is valve...

    Cold side A/r ratios in twins

    It is my understanding the A/R on the compressor housing makes very minimal difference on a single turbo setup, but I have been thinking that on the secondary in a twin setup, larger could be better, as it would be easlier for the primary to push more air thru the secondary housing? What say...
