Recently had KDP killed, 4000 GSK, 60 lb valve springs, AFC spring, #10 fuel plate and timing advance to 15.5. Guages are getting fiminshed up today. Took it for a little spin and wow ! What a difference from stock

What can I do next ? Injectors ? Or do I have to get a different turbo ? If so which one and what injectors ? Daily driver some heavy towing once in a great while. Thanks.

I'll be almost exactly where you are in a couple months, with any luck. The responses to this thread are relevant to my interests

With the 215 pump, you've got more than enough fuel available to easily grenade your stock turbo. Look into a better turbo to take advantage of what you've got before you drop the coin on sticks. I run my 'zero' plate right around the middle and can see some pretty hot temps when getting after it with the new turbo setup. The hx35 would see nearly 2000 in 4th....

id buy a combo... a set of ddp 75hp injectors.. after that a set of arp head studs and a turbo.

Magnum Salvage

What turbo would you recommend. I want good power out of the hole and down low. Not looking for a drag truck. I here alot about the Phatshaft 62 ? Anyones thoughts ? Thanks

got_soot

depends,how deep is your pockets

Magnum Salvage

Well, 2000 or less.

got_soot

for your setup id be looking into the silver 62 for Industrail injection or just buy a good ole trust worthy s-300 and a set of injectors at the same time for about 2k..just my two pennies

Have you modified the stock wastegate yet? Your stock turbo is good for about 350 HP towing and 400 HP hotrodding. To make that much power, you need to modify the stock wastegate and let it run in the 32-40 psi range. If dependability is important, keep boost under 36 psi.

Do a little research on a boost elbow or some sort of air regulator type wastegate controller.

I have a boost elbow. I have the adjustable with the allen head screw. Its bottomed out. I didn't push it super hard but I saw it hit 32 psi the other day. Haven't driven it much since I got it all done. Does it matter what gear I stand on it in to check the psi ?

got_soot

usually the max psi your gonna find is in 5th gear, thats when you can max out your boost..

OK, thank you, Sorry for the questions that may seem dumb. I'm learning as I go. Without the Turbo or injectors, with what mods I have in my signature, where do u think I am ? 275 HP 600 torque ? or am I dreaming ?

got_soot

no dumb questions around here.. we were not born knowing this stuff.lol..thats why we are here to help. hmm i would feel safe saying that your in that ball park..if anything you might be alittle above your 275 level.

Magnum Salvage

OK. Thank you very much
