Thanks Lloyd, easier for me to install a cam then post pictures on the web. Tim

 

Dang! I should of known this had something to do with Timinva!!!!!

Two awesome trucks! Now it's time to start working on the Jetta so your wife can have some fun too.......

 

There's the difference in what's done to my truck. With some better tuning I'd be real close to 800hp without spending a dime. I haven't found that sweet spot yet with it though. Also, my engine wasn't being pushed to it's limit getting to 700hp where you're was probably screaming. You're pretty much suck where you're at unless you spend the extra cash.

My point with my post was.... I want to do as much on fuel as I can. I'm pushing the limits of my SB now as far as keeping cool. Don said the truck they dynoed had twins and didn't do much more than my truck is capable of. So I looked at it like an extra 3 to 5K on twins to only get me 75hp more. The reality is though.... I'll never get the cooling the twins can give on a single so there's no choice but to go twins.

 

I know what your point was and I wasnt trying to bash on your truck. its is nice and you have thousands in the engine I know you do. but like you said you might as well spend the money and get the twin turbos. if I had the money I would call Nathan at MPI right now. I guess I should have worded it better and said you already have dual cp3s and engine work done why not just buy twin turbos also? I know $ doesnt grow on trees. It takes thousands to build a dependable diesel truck with 700hp or more

 

Outstanding job Tim!

 

I've got a question for you. I've seen a couple of people mention that the '04 305 engines have weaker valve seats than the later engines. Is this true? I'm wondering if I need to be a little careful about building up a daily driver if this is the case. Thanks,

John

 

No wonder my tranny is taking so long

Now I see why Tim was trying to talk me outta my 12v and switch to CR...he defiantly knows his CR!

Way to go Tim!
Chris

 

There is a replacement valve seat for the 03-04 CR that is slightly larger that is suppose to cure the do drop out...which has happened twice to me. Some people just ping the seat in 4 or 8 spots with a center punch and this is a good stop gap....A full bore refit with oversize valves and seats is the long-term way to go to get more flow and security. 06's I thought had bigger valves than 04's....KS

 

very nice,i see you got all those parts installed the other day when i picked my truck up.2 questions,1-any water on these runs?2-what kind of cfms do you think your twin set up is flowing

 

Jess, my bottom charger moves about 125 lbs of air per minute. I am not sure what that is in cfm. I am sure Nate knows though. I should have enough air for around 900hp. I have a 88mm s400 to go on next and that one moves about 140 lbs per minute. No water on my truck yet.
Kerry the valves are the same size in a 04 as the 06. The head on the 06 just has a little better ports. I actually think the 04.5 and 05 have the best valves. Tim

 

Tim- if it is the same charger I have, it moves 1900 cfm if memory serves me correct

 

Same turbo Lloyd, Thanks Tim

You better get some water injection!!

 

Removing the muffler gave an additional 10 HP. The truck still has the stock tailpipe though. So its up 790 HP and still no TST. This is Smarty only.

 

WOW, I just saw this thread. Way to go, Tim. The TST should easily put it over 800. I'll be watching this.
