    Boost issues?

    Yeah mines a Hewitt K thermo pre turbo. I can hit 1200* any time I wish right now. It comes on quick. I may also buy a 15lb gauge cause I'd like to see the full range used. I will get the wife to chase me around and make a video soon

    Boost issues?

    Mine is located in the rear bank pre-turbo. This is a brand new gauge from Hewitt. I wasn't expecting it to miss the pressure by much. I live in some hilly country and so far I can just relax the throttle and keep it around 1000-1100. It will however hit 1200 quick in a hard acceleration. I'm...

    Boost issues?

    You think the gauge is off that bad? How can I cure that? Cause I'm just about to call and order a 0-15 cause it looks weak on the 30lb gauge. Here is my crappy video. Let's see how it works http://youtu.be/EXUTEyYTPFA

    Boost issues?

    So I got the FDC bypassed yesterday and let me say WOW the truck is a beast now!!! Pulls 11psi quickly. Only problem is it's real easy to flirt with that 1200* mark. Not a crazy amount of black smoke either. Prob gonna dial it back down. I took a video but I can't figure out how to load it. It's...

    eBay jerry cans.

    Has anyone tried the new eBay jerry cans in the old mounts? Do they fit or function worth a flip?

    Boost issues?

    Will do man I plan on bypassing this week. I drove it some more yesterday and the absolute most i ever got was 5psi I live in some hilly country. EGT's never got above 1000. And truthfully from the angle I look at my gauges it may have only been 950.... But at cruise running 50 I had 0psi and...

    What Would You Pay?

    Question about air assist power steering kits for m35... shelf life ???

    Just me thinkin but before I spent 2k on air assist I'd sell a gun or two if you got spares and buy a true power kit.

    I'm bypassing the FDC today

    Ok good deal. I got the pyro installed and max temps on a long mtn pull hit 1000 but for a short time. So don't let the actual threads on the screw in the FDC turn. What about the threads and lock nuts under the square cover on the IP? Need to fool with them at all now? Also can that threaded...

    Boost issues?

    Thanks fellas. Mine is a "C" turbo if that helps, FDC and IP are untouched. Fixin to not be the case. I plan to bypass and bump the fuel a bit. I sort of wish I only got a 15 psi gauge. Kinda unsatisfying seein a 5psi on 30!! Lol. I put the pyro probe in the rear bank of the manifold pre-turbo.

    Boost issues?

    Installed my pyro and boost gauge today and at very best in a lugging pull uphill my truck only built 5psi. Pyro ran to about 950-1000 do I have a boost issue or is my truck just weak? New fuel filters, pump runs great. Cranks and runs out up to 2600rpm and 60mph decently well Thanks fellas for...

    I'm bypassing the FDC today

    I have read all the write ups and one thing I keep missing is why to turn the screw on the front in .100 what is it's reason. Is this the screw that everyone says turn the nuts not the screw? Or is that in the IP cause I'm also installing boost and pyro today so I hope to dial fuel up as well.

    Turbo Question

    My turbo whistled more when the exhaust was shot but now it's fairly quiet until it's pullin. And I'm learning you can't base anything on a deuce on prior commercial truck experience,.... Unless of course you count that it runs on diesel. btw mine with 1100s wouldn't keep 55 on any grade...
