I will be sure to do that. Just let me intall my stg 1 CP3 tomorrow or sat and see where that gets me. But i do think I will be calling sat, if I cant figure anything out.

I fought toothand nail to find out if my hg was blown in my 06 So I should be able to help you out.There is little room for error when installing the hg with O-rings

It is very possible that there is an issue with the head gaset. But the poping was present a long time ago before i did any of this work, I am still trying to figure out what is causing that.

just throwing out a possiblity...maybe some pieces of the compressor wheel in the turbo were laying in the intake manifold and found their way back into your 07 head? there might be a floating valve? or one that isnt closing completely? even though your engine was doing it before...im just checking, is the cam timed correctly to the motor?

Could your timing be off? This is way out of my league of mechanical ability but Im just throwing out suggestions. I had a rough idle issue but a new FCA fixed that.
#21
I went out and started the truck, The idle was smoother this morning, but the Rail pressure was jumoing around once I put it in drive and the truck was ideling wierd. It warmed up and went back to the same rough idle, I didnt drive it around any.
I am getting a stage 1 Wicked pump tomorrow. Well see what that fixes. Do the FCA's really go out on these things that often? Everyone is always talking about them

I drive it around a bit and I noticed something strange. When I get on the gas pretty good from a dead stop and I completly let off the accelerator 50ft later the truck wants to keep going, like the turbo is pushing it, or maybe the FCA is stuck open and its feeding it fuel, the rail pressure jumps around alot when it does this. I dont think I am barking the turbo, but just incase I am turbo bark wont accelerate the vehicle will it?

i think it is a fuel condition. possibly you have a dirty fuel filter? they need to be changed every 15K miles. i just changed my the other day with 11K miles on it and it was pretty dark. maybe some debris passed through you filter and in the FCA when the piston in the FCA gets scored or something from debris it can stick or cause other problems. i think the new CP3 might fix your problems. keep us posted

My truck is kind of having the same issue. It only does it on even number on the smarty. When it loaded on the even numbers it pops and white smokes and it weak. But if I load the odd numbers it does not do it. When we put my injectors in my truck we had broke a bolt off in the head so the dealer put a new head on my truck a long story about that so I dont need to get in to that. But the dealer put a new head on my truck so could there be something wrong with the new 07 heads. I just can't figure it out way the truck just does it with even numbers on the smarty. I was not trying to hyjack your post my truck having simlar issue. So could it be something wrong with our heads.

No pressure box, and im sure the beta adds pressure but nothing like the revo and tnt tunes. it sounds like aninjector isse but im not convinced because the truck had the same problems with the stock injectors and now these new ones? Highly inprobable. Maybe its a bad ground, or a ecu problem IF afterinstalling the Stage I cp3 tomorrow doesnt cure anything.
I wonder if the rail pressure sensor is acting up? Just strange there are no codes.

might be due to the rail being capped off........... if I read your sig correctly. take the ten minutes, undue that cap, and get on the road and report back.
