just installed a tst pm3.....question about turbo
I just installed a tst pm3, the instructions say it wont start adding fuel until the turbo hits 2 psi. In normal driving with light peddle....maybe not so normal lol....the pressure doesnt read anything. It starts to go up about half throttle, and maybe 1500 rpm. Btw.....have enjoyed and learned a lot reading through thousands of the past threads.
It was about the same on all settings.....havent went any higher than 7....still stock clutch, and i really dont want to replace it yet.
I guess what i wanted to know is... does it normally take a while for the turbo to spool up, once it hits the truck really takes off, but its not instant. I really dont think there is a problem but wasnt sure. BTW thanks for the response

If you are driving gently, to protect clutch, I suppose it's theoretically possible to get to 40-50 mph (empty) without seeing any boost. Remember, most boxes were originally designed for use when towing, ie., heavier throttle.
Try a lower setting, 2 or 3, and give it some gas...boost & fueling should come in right away if your turbo is spooling properly.
Mine, with bigger injectors fuels quickly...I normally drive around town on #7....
I would expect yours to be fueling by time your off the clutch with normal acceleration. Mine is an auto...so can't give you comparison.

I just got back and tried it out, i just have to be a little more agressive with the throttle. I really like the box, hard to tell its there until you get some open area and step into it. Thanks for the info RJ

Mine starts to fuel the second I let the clutch out.
