Not quite that much. I went from 140 hp to 193 when the dyno operator released the parking brake.

My attitude is:

"I'm not sure where I'll end up. I only ask that those ahead of me not slam on brakes as I'll run all over them." Name: tease1.gif Views: 46 Size: 7.9 KB




Talking about the valves, it seems Back-Cutting the valves is a regular thing.

I was wondering the same thing... Have you been tinkering Bill, or do you not want to let the cat out of the bag? That truck of yours is mighty fast anyway!

I think Jayers should chime in with his "unofficial non-Dunbar" numbers.

Here you go, 575/1198 and like JQmile said they are "unofficial non-Dunbar" numbers. Bill I might make 600hp this year, we'll just have to see. I have made some significant changes to both the fuel and air this winter, hopefully they were in the right direction.

Can you light the turbos on the dyno like you do on the street? I'm thinking they must build boost pretty early by that torque number.

Yes sir, it took alot of afc tuning and timing adjustment but I could have max boost by 1700-1800rpm on the dyno and that was with the HT4B. Im running a S4 now so things should light even faster.
