At the end of this month, April 29th and 30th Blue Chip diesel in New Hampshire is having an Open house with a portable dyno there. Just thought i would spread the word and hope to see some of you guys from here there. Check out their website for more details, www.bluechipdiesel.com

 

Sweet, thanks for the heads up. hopefully I'll have my new tranny in by then.

thats cool, where abouts are you coming from? What tranny are you having put in?

 

South East VT. My Goerend tranny was on the dyno this morning and he hoped to have it out to me today. Its non-billet cause i didnt have quite that much to spend but it does have the tripple disc TC.


Travis

 

sweet, just about anything is better then the stock tranny

 

I have a 3:30 dyno time on saturday. Who alls gonna be there?!??!?!!



Travis

 

I am going on the dyno at 1pm on saturday, I will see you there, what does your truck look like, mine is silver with a Mass Diesel sticker on the back window, see you there

 

mine is a silver and blue reg cab with mitre stacks on 35's. Green plates. Ill be with a grey 06 4 door cummins and a silly white 4 door ford.

I made it back in one piece. Good times.....Mapquest directions were on but the town neglected having a sign for one of the streets. There were a bunch of trucks there. Some good horse power. I made 269 hp and 579 tq. I think thats pretty respectable with only a 100plate 3kgsk and 16.5 deg timing.


Travis

 

good work, i saw your truck there but i did not see you anywhere around it. I dont know what was up with my truck and the dyno, they just did not get along. I tried it to different times and each time i was on the dyno, they kept getting an error that said tire wheel speed exceeded, then when they got that error message to go away, the graph was all hay wire and eratic. Oh well i guess, i got another shot at the dyno on May 20th and i got my $75 bucks back.

 

Ahh that was you!! sorry I didnt say hi....I wasnt quite sure. i did notice your passenger rear wheel was very out of balance....my buddy that was with me has run dynos before and he says that very well may have something to do with it. I was actually standing right by the dyno on the passensger side of your truck on your second run.


Travis

 

bummer, i wish u had said something. I saw your truck out by the road. How bad was my rear tire out of balance? What was it doing that gave you the impression that it was out of balance? It goes fine down the road and everything. I did change the brakes in it last weekend, maybe the wheel is not on just right, Thanks

 

It kinda looked like there was a broken belt in the tire. It was hopping pretty bad....not like off the drum or anything but it was hopping. It was an up and down movement not a wobble so i think you got the lug nuts tight!! lol. Your turbo sounded good however!! How much boost are you seeing? There were a lot of nice trucks there.....I have to get on giving the body of mine some TLC. Its showing signs of cancer...I have to catch it soon.

Travis

 

I am running 40 psi of boost, it is a Super 40 turbo and it works pretty well. I just bought a sled puller 66 and that should be here tomorrow. The new turbo and head studs, i should be running about 50 to 55 psi of boost. I hope to add some Mach 5 injectors, or maybe the 4 but have not decided. I will go and look my tire over and see if i can see anything visual. Thanks again. I will also look at the video of my truck that i took to see if i can see what you are talking about, Thanks

 

Nice...i ordered a s400 for twins the other day. It'll take me a bit to save up for all the stuff but I'll make it. Timmy took a video of your rig I think so if you cant tell anything from yours Ill see if his has any details in it.
