How does that 62 spool with those sticks? Pyro and boost numbers?

I pulled my 25' gooseneck the other day. Think the tag shows it right around 6k plus about 7-8k worth of 4x4 tractor, loader and big disc.Showed 1100 post turbo and drank the diesel. Wouldn't have been bad but i had to go from 3-4 pulling a hill and that 62 hates the gap in gears between 3&4. It's waste gated at 42psi and i have no issues getting it there esp unloaded. I was expecting to lose some boost with the addition of the cooler tubz and timing but i still hit that 42 mark.

I'm more so becoming concerned that the nv4500 isn't liking the set up. Seems to talk back a little when you get heavy on the skinny pedal in 3 & 4. Was actually concerned enough I stopped to check the oil in it. Temp fix was to turn the radio up louder and roll on

the 60/68/.7 is a great turbo but you will need to tune your fuel to a max of 40-45psi as the .7 housing is a non-gated housing on that turbo usually. Unless it says it is a gated housing, then even better. either way it will be a great turbo for 300-350.

Go with 5x12s with that charger.
