Had a few folks say that I need to start a new thread instead of just keeping on adding to my "Interceptors Done" thread...So I will.
We can just let the bad luck on my old truck be forgotten.
I'll just copy and paste to make it easier....
Thanks everyone for the support over the years and the encouragement with this new one...
--------------------
After having 850+ hp in the 05 and then putting it back to pretty much stock, I just wasn't happy..
Thought I'd be happy with trading it for a 2012, Which I did and I love!! ( MiniMax and Deletes soon to be installed when I find time).
But it just wasn't like having what I had for power... So my buddy had his up for sale and kept trying to get me to buy it ( he wants a 2012 also )... I was trying to help him sell it by posting pics for him and everything.. Then I just CAVED...
We struck a deal and Now I have an 07 with lots of mods...
Not quite as fast / powerful as my 05 but runs Really Really well.
It has slightly smaller turbos on it and slightly smaller injectors.
GOOD news is it has EFI Live on it with a tune from Rich at Dog House Diesel.
The previous owner never had time to get with Rich and put it on the dyno to REALLY tune it well, so Rich sent him his "Nitrous" tune that he runs on his truck.
It's Really Fast but a bit smokey due to the lower timing and extra fuel to burn with nitrous...
So I'm going to get with Rich soon to get on the dyno and / or data log some and see what it needs to be perfect...
This will be my "Toy"...Street but mainly Strip...
My Cosmetic Plans are to Have the Wheels Powder coated Black ( bought a spare set so I can keep these nice), Line-X the Chrome area on the bumpers Black, and then Paint or Line-X the grill black as well....
Getting rid of the chrome step bars also... Will be for sale if someone wants them.
Some Black Garmon and Dog House Diesel Stickers will go on the sides / back to support my friends work...
Long Term plans is the save for Larger turbos or different setup and maybe a little more fuel.... Not until I can afford to pull the motor and put some different rods in and maybe decompress it a bit for reliability....
