I was just going from what my brother told me on his ride. We might scare him off with some of the bigger HP pulls. Mines not even fast anymore.

Kev, sounds like you got the D-max tuned up pretty good.

Kenny, what kinda of boost you pulling? I found that the wastegate on the garrett open at 28 psi, so I disconnected mine. Might help with the egt's and making more top end HP.

Kenny you're good to go. You should try a run with the wastegate blockin and see you boost and egt's number. I can't wait to see what kinda of number I'll pull for a just spare parts stock ride.

On a side note, the night of the 23rd there is UFC 98.
Anyone want to go and have a few beer and watch some fights after the dyno? Or at least point me in the direction of a good place to watch.

If I'm not working, I'm down for that. I missed UFC 97. I would be disappointed, but sounds like Anderson Silva put on a pretty lousy show.

Bump - This is your two week warning and get your truck running for the dyno.

I'm pumped guys, sure beats that work thingy. I'm curious what I'm gonna pull. The truck feels strong for such a low power mod truck. Definately good use of the spray.

I might have the new NV in the 97 by then.. Or might run the 6.7 just to see how it performs.

I have about 3/4 of everything out of my truck for engine mods. Another couple of hours and I should have the engine right out. A bit more of a chore then I thought it would be! I found the most frustrating part of engine removal is the electrical connections. Push here pull there pry on this bust the red tab here.... LOL I will still be attending even if I don't get the 98 going. Just take the 04.5 with its killer smarty jr! LOL

Woohoo, I finally got my speedometer calibrated for my 37s. Trucks shifts WAY better than before. I'm looking forward to see what it lays down on the dyno
