What can I expect?

I'm thinking about eventually running a #100 plate...right now I have the AFC tweaked, straight exhaust and a BHAF. Also slid the stock plate forward....
I'm going to be doing the KDP soon and was kinda hoping to time it while I was in there. and also fixing the pesky vac pump seal....

my question..what kind of power can I expect out of a 100 plate? I was also planning on putting a 3k GSK in there too..
I'll also be moving my gauges from my mercedes to the CTD before I get a plate...
I'm sure with the 215 pump I can expect high EGTs..how should I best combat them? HX-35/40 hybrid? HX-40? HTB2 or whatever the hot turbo is now?
Not trying to start a pissing match, just curious which would work best...also, clutches. What clutch would you guys reccomend? I'll be doing some light towing nothing serious over 10k...


Thanks!!

100 plate

Even with stock injectors, you are gonna smoke like crazy! The gsk as with any plate will really widen that powerband and make u feel that bang that the plate offers, I have run it with a stock turbo and you are correct, there is not enough air for all that fuel, thus the smoke and the high egts, Turbos, well id suggest you go high tech turbo, Clutch, anything but stock or centerforce, southbend has a good reputation, mitchells clutches from enterprise engine have a solid rep as well, and Kennys seem to be on the rise... If you want proven, go southbend..

If your boost gauge is anything less than 30 psi, i suggest gettin a 60 psi, and using new gauges instead. Trust me, look at Dusty Rocks plate profiles, that 100 is gonna pack a wallop in comparsion to the stock!.. Ull love it

I have read that a 215 pumped truck with just a GSK, and a 100 plate can be in the neighborhood of 350 or so rwhp, So enjoy! and best get a clutch in there as well and quick!

Yeah smoke is good though

imagine 370s and 100 plate..
does High Tech Turbo have a website?

I'm not really looking into getting THAT crazy with it yet - I dont plan on removing the head to o-ring or fire ring..just looking at bolt-on stuff for now.
Yeah the stock clutch will be smoked if I were to put that kind of power thru it.
It seems to be holding up to a slid stocker though lol.
Who makes a nice a-pillar gauge mount? I was looking at one on Genos and then I was going to buy the interior paint to make it match...
I've already got an autometer cobalt EGT, so I'm going to be getting the autometer cobalt 0-60psi mechanical boost gauge.
they look at night.

ive got the 100 plate,3k gsk,stock injectors and you can expect smoke lots of it. im waiting on gauges to get here and then the 370's are going in, but as i found out last night im going to need a bigger or hybrid turbo to raise my boost and will also have to bump my timing to 16 or 17.
