Hate to beat a dead horse. Estmated power ?

Anyone want to give me a conservative estimate on these mods? Super 40 turbo with the appropriate exhaust housing for a 5spd manual. Power screw turned up as much as possible, 190's or POD's, 3200 spring, Denny T stage 2 fuel pin and BHAF with twin 5 inch stacks. looking for ball park HP and torque estimates ? Thanks.

Um with the 190's prolly around 270-300hp and with the POD's 350-380hp and as far as tq values, its hard to say.

Ya, but will the POD's be bad for Towing heavy with EGT's ? Fuel mileage vs. the 190's ?

pods are not good for hauling heavy better off with 190's pods are a dirty injector although with pods in my truck with 3500 lbs in the bed hitting a hill at the bottom at 65 and topping the hill at 75-80 i was only at 1050 egt i haven't had a problem with egts with my pods but i do have the stock h1c on my truck

The POD's are the cheaper way out, but if your going to spend the money go with a set of edm's. I have PODs in my truck and with the Valet switch on towing a 18' camper and the bed loaded (motor cycle and wood) going up hill my egt's stayed below 1200 that was with the 727 (which blew up the same weekend) and my foot to the floor. I personaly dont think that the PODs are that dirty but you do get a haze at idle.

Well, I would be pulling a 34 ft triaxle gooseneck that may top 20,000 lbs at times. Would POD's just make the EGT's too hot ? I'm not looking for the cheap way out but I want the best of both worlds, power for the dollar and fuel economy. What are EDM's ? Are those custom built injectors ? Thanks and sorry for all the questions, just trying to get eduacted better by you guys that know what you're talking about

Depends on how healthy the pump is and how much it's turned up. You should be able to get at least 325/750 out of the setup in your first post, and probably 350/800.

Yep, edm's are basically custom built injectors.
