Just finished the install the other day. Mounted the pyro and boost gauge in the dash. Will have pictures sometime, i was able to mount everything with orgional hardware from the dummie lights!
Glad i finally go around to installing it, because i've really been lucky without them so far.

Looks like it's time for more air. I have the same CD player.

 

Cool!! got it hooked up.

glad to see it works, i saved you some money didn't I ?? they're rediculous priced new

 

I could only imagine how high the EGT was when you had the screw in farther

Don't let 1200 bother you that much...1400+ is when it starts to get scary

 

Thats where I put my Tack and Fuel Pressure gauges at...

 

brandon what is 1200 degrees i never reached that point

 

sure you don't

 

thats where my two gauges are. easier and cheaper than a pod

 

i'm not joking i have only seen 1200 one time on the road and one time on the dyno when it was 1800

 

1200* is nothing. On my old pulling truck I'd bury the needle at 1600* and it'd take a while to come off. This was with a decent set of twins. He looked like he could have kept going in the video though.

 

I wish you had a tach in that video , good ole 3 speeds

 

Yeah that motor winds up pretty good. In the video i was going about 60 and went to approx 85 when i backed off, traffic wouldn't allow any more.
i've had it to 100+ and without my foot in the floor. Otherwise i'll see 1500* in about 4 to 5 seconds and the boost will stay right at 30#. if i back off to about 20# it seems to accelerates faster at the higher rpms.
Weird thing is when i hit 1500 it hits some sort of governor and shuts fuel off, or maybe thats a subconscious thing i do with my foot. The one plus side i do notice is when i back off the temp drops to about half, i'd like to see how the rpms relate once i get some tach hooked up. I like the tooth counting idea, the alternator mount seems inaccurate to me because of belt slip under acceleration. It would be nice to get a balancer with a built in mag and just mount a sensor next to it.

Thanks brandon, it really came out nice i think. Also yeah i can only imagine what i was seeing before when it was hitting 35# with a black cloud billowing out the tail pipe.
I agree with you 95ram i have something in the works, just need a few more parts and pieces.

 

that is a nice place to mount them.

OH man how i wish i had a 1st gen. Maybe later down the road when i can afford to have 2 trucks. But for now im just glad to have a cummins.
