A friend of mine bought a new 07 CTD 6 speed,crewcab,and the thing won't spank mine loaded or unloaded on level 2 on the edge,is there something strange about the way the are rating the newer trucks? its supposed to have 325hp (he said) but my pump aint tapped,and that makes a +65hp difference.
so 245+65=310 hp right? what gives?

 

My '07 was a dog stock as was my '99. I installed a Smarty on the '07 and it's a different vehicle now. Plenty of power on the low levels.

 

remember the new truck ratings are not at the wheels,and the emmisions software doesn't give a ton of torque down low.

my 07 with the 3 dog will spank the crap out of a lot of trucks with or without the 8k gn on it, has he removed the restrictor in the air tube

 

Not as far as I know,I doubt that he's messed with it at all,where is it? how hard is it to get rid of?

Thanks

 

My friend has the same truck. It does OK, but it is still opening the waste gate too early between 2000-2500rpm. It's really noticable now with the AFE-II. Turbo spools,& then dumps several times between those rpm's. He's called DC several times, & they say they've never heard of that problem before. Does yours do that too?

 

take the air tube off in front of the turbo and their is a white plastic device in it with fins its hard to remove but i got mine out it doesnt restrict a lot but it does some

 

I think you are way off base,the tube flows an additional 100 cfm with the vanes in place on a flow bench.............
