Thought I'd give Old Moldy some airtime My buddy was gonna run the camera, but he never showed up, so I just shot a quick 2nd gear romp Tweeked my fuel screw a bit more...now the little H1C doesn't stand a chance with the soot cloud, even at 40+psi...come ON tax returns

Sweet, I have been looking at your truck for a long time now I get to see it in action. Good cloud...

 

lol, that is freaking funny. how many passes? prolly just 1 not that i think about it.

 

It didn't occur to me untill just now that the camera was pointing at the neighbors house...better stop over and let them know I'm not spying on them

 

Cool.

You need a camera Man!

 

yeah, I do, but not for that run or you all would have seen me almost hit my woodpile

 

Those EDM's put out some pretty good smoke.

 

Yeah, and that's with a fair amount of timing (I nudged the pump a bit further than my sig implies ) Unlike with the old injectors, that fog doesn't clear up very much when I get rolling. Right now I'm thinking about the HTBG pretty hard. It'd make a nice top turbo down the road, too

 

Nice lookin rig and smoke there

 

Thats a dark cloud! Truck sounds sweet. Any mileage reports on those edms?

 

No mileage as of yet. I've been sick in bed for over a week--yesterday was the first time I ventured outside is a while. I thought about doing something productive...then decided to film my truck wasting fuel instead What I found so far with these injectors is that they flow a fair bit more than stock for a given pump setting. My present settings are such that the H1C has no hope of helping the situation. Anything over 1/16 throttle while running up through the gears produces enough smoke to be considered (by me) annoying to other drivers. The 12cm spools pretty quick, but it's not enough to clear things up under 'normal' driving untill about 20psi. I 'may' bandaid the situation with an HTT compressor upgrade, but I've seen a lot of first gen folks hit the wall rather quickly, even with the stage IV. At about 300 bucks shipped, I'll have a 400k turbo that may only meet my needs for a couple months...just doesn't seem like the way to go, ya know?

 

I was told that POD's smoke and EDM's were supposed to be clearner? I gotta get me a camcorder.

 

Ya gotta remember my AFC is ground I could have pea-shooter injectors and still smoke pretty bad when I'm under the turbo. The EDM's do smoke less, too, it's just that I don't have nearly the air potential to take advantage of the available fuel. I just did a bonzai run on the way home (steep hill) and I was sitting at 1250 pre turbo @80mph in 4th, about 2900 rpm's. 40psi and the coal was just a-rollin. With my stock injectors, I ran that same hill at 65mph, and 1000 degrees POST turbo. My goal is to have 270-300 RWHP that I can use every day WITHOUT adding an intercooler. The HTBG and water/meth will get me there from here, I think.

 

That goal is very possible. Right now i am running right at 300 hp and my truck is very driveable. I have no problems pulling loads, driveing in traffic or highway. Since i am in college i drive about 400 miles a week, and have no problems. Smoke is not all of that bad either, unless i want it to be

 

A fair bit eh .. and to think about those other nonIC'd guys that let these slip by ..
