It was fun watching Fred play with the new to him mach 6'rs. Can't wait till we put some more air to help clearup all that extra fuel. Hard to for me to imagen someone driving those big sticks on only one turbo And I must sit there and watch my pyro as I tow my RV with them, running twins. Jason, thats ok, we will just rig up the ranger for R&D data logging.

Jason, as I can get you a S362 here in Calgary right away, it can be built your specs. I'm going to get a parts breakdown for the S300's series of turbos so we can design exactly what everyone wants.

I'm going to look into seeing what that S480 can be adjusted to, we have a new secert project on the go,

mike -
the turbo from ED has been ordered, a 62/68/14 built and tweaked for my truck/usage/power levels.
it's gonna take a while to get here, so i'm not in a pinch for a DP just yet . . . unless you wanted to do some r&d with my truck before the new turbo arrives.

Document what you get? I'm curious to how its configured. I working a pretty sweet configuration, Borg Warner just released a new compressor/turbine wheels. I'm putting it onto my truck and see for myself. I have to keep up with you guys some way, some how.

What sized sticks you going with Jason? I will be around the following weekend if you can wait. I can share some of the build specs that I have in mind for my new turbo. Its abit different than the normal stuff and I want to try something different.

Sounds good, I thought you had bigger injectors than that. You'll have lots of room to grow into with that turbo. Fred's running mach 6's on a garrett stage 3

no, nothing bigger yet. maybe one day but not anytime soon. chris at ED said the same thing - some room to go with bigger sticks if needed . . .

how much boost do you expect i'll be able to make if i had all the boxes maxxed out? i'm not gonna' try though - as i don't have studs . . .

I would guess around 40-55psi of boost, lots of variables.
