Manual trucks would blow balls trying to pull with a single this size......... every shift re-spooling without the converter to help you
yeah mu buddy had that same turbo you just got on his vp44 truck which is a 5spd and with stock injectors, monster stage 1 pump, he could barely spool that thing, then we built his twins and he got 150's and it moves pretty good.

good luck with it....i almost hope it doesn't do what you want cuz i want to see a twin build....lol
How big is the Diesel truck scene around here i saw a Harlel Davidson eddition F-250 in diesel power a few months ago and i've seen a few nice trucks driving around (not to mention all the trucks at M-state when diesel tech classes are going on) but it doesn't seem to big -

Zach, is your trans built?my pickup had fueling mods before i got it.....so i don't know if he did something to the stock tranny or not...
but somehow it shifts and holds every gear like a million bucks.... so either it was built somewhat awhile back or i am just really really lucky so far, haha
It will go to Goerend for all the goodies when it does shit.... But yes i do have a billet 3 disk Goerend converter, that was a huge difference over the stock converter

ahh alright. have you heard of the new kit where you can make your stock p7100 into a 16mm pump by swaping out the delivery valves and the rack? and its suppose to only cost a few hundred. but im guessing it wouldnt be very street able, be like driving around with a sigma...

The "super B special" is a 64.5mm comp, and a 71mm turbine... which is what i have
was it on a 3rd gen truck?? cuz even just the super B would be a huge upgrade over the 9cm hotside on the stock turbo, that thing is big EGT maker

Hey Zac, does that have the wastegate on it or is that the difference with the 35w? We have one wearing out, and looking for a used replacement.are you asking on the original or new turbo?
but yes both the new and old are wastegated
old is only wastegates one volute... new does both and they are big

zac, have you loaded your engine much yet? im curious how it will pull while towing

but honestly I am amazed how it is working..... don't know why people say you dont want to pull with a 64?? unless it is that much different in a maunual truck?? I almost wish i would have went with a 66 as seeing how responsive the 64 is
At unloaded cruising i now see slightly higher EGT's and lower boost pressures.....(should help some with mileage from easier engine breathing). but with a little bit of load it will quickly trasition into good boost with out any smoke or hesitation.... then the EGTs stay way way lower than they would have with the stocker under any load
We will be hauling calves in a week or two so that will be 25k lbs.... see then what it does with a heavy load. Should get a vid showing all the guages when i am loaded like that accelerating and cruising loaded.
As of now i love it... and really see no absolute need for twins... I know now that i could go to a 66 if i needed more and still spool it to my liking
jacobs give your 2 cents, you rode in it and can attest to the spooling, EGT's, and power increase
Its still a tossup as to whether the 4K governor springs, torque converter change, or turbo swap made the single most impressive change all by itslef
