The rubber was bothering me

That's what she said.

It is a AFE pro dry filter, 5" plumbing

It whistled loud before, probably too much now

yes probably the most boring $700 worth of parts, but they sure are beefy

big enough that i could not install them with my ball joint press

and you can even rebuild these without removing them

very nice quality IMO

and yeah, a diesel shop out here would be bank right now

as long as you could make it smoke you would be making $$$$$$$$, lol

You need to open a diesel shop over there in oil country and take all of the oil riggers money....

X2 For real. That would be a lucrative place to put a performance shop at the moment.

Very cool! Do you have any dyno sheets from the old setup? It would be cool to dyno it now and compare.

yeah never any dyno beforeit is alot hotter now with the bigger pump though so it really isnt fairbut i do know that if i had done just the twins and nothing else it would of brought about an extra 300ftlbs in WAY sooner

he got me a new turbo my hands in a week! great, just great

I traded my 64/68/14 for a new 66/73/.91 from dave

i felt i just needed some more turbine on the primary because drive pressure stayed nice and around 1:1 until i started adding fuel then it made a nice uphill

with the new turbo I cant imagine it working any better, boost is instant, and it builds and holds 53psi of boost with 54psi of drive pressure. Moves out very nicely, and it tows like a N14 now

I cannot get it to surge no matter what i try, I should of done this much sooner

here you can see the difference in the 68 and 73 turbine, the 73 looks much easier flowing, with a clip cast or cut into it

also i had to change the hotpipe up some for a T4 flange, i got an extended flange and man that was slick for making an easy to remove and install brace. I feel it turned out fantastic

new crossover pipe

and the finished pics

easier than stock to get to the oil filter

happy dodge

and a little bit of rice, haha

yes the pickup has about 8 gallons of bedliner on it, lol

starts fine without the grids, i usually have it plugged in at home though. started in fargo at 0* without problems though. I dont have my timing advance much so that helps as does keeping the stock compression ratio

and all my stuff is old, cheap, and slow..... truth

Wow that looks good, man! Is your whole truck Rhino-lined?

Indeed haven't you seen it? He uses it to pull the 7 to the right side of the state so we can drool over it.

and the response on the twins is CRAZY, and the sounds are crazy, haha

i havent pushed it past about half throttle but there it comes up to 35psi like a light switch, EGTs never above 1000* yet

the wastegate on the smaller secondary turbo cracks at around 15psi...... up to around 25psi the primary and secondary are running about 50/50 for boost

I havent been above that much but above 25psi it moves more to around 2/3 of the boost supported by the primary

see what it does when the head is seated good... but for now it is killer

here are some pics

yes i was one Tbolt clamp short, and i dont have a bend necessary to fab the intake yet

here is just a shot of the crossover with the bung i put in it

and i reworked the harness a lot and cleaned that up, ABS crap is gone, grid BS gone, fuel heater BS gone, battery in back, fuel solenoid bs gone

you can actually change the fuel filter with ease now

finally got that, they did a good job, i can nearly see my reflection in the deck surface

motor is assembled, in, and running...... have one retorque done too

ill get some vids and pics of everything complete and some analysis of how it feels when i can push it some when the head is good and seated

I had said that i was going to keep it under 10psi till i got some heat cycles and retorques, but the dang thing comes up to 20psi with hardly any fuel now, such a crazy difference

with the studs it seems most either have the rocker stands milled down or the valve covers ground to get the valve covers to fit. I took a different approach

as such

and the thing already has Luke's links all around on the front end with a box stabilizer so when it was apart i spent the $$ on a Borgeson box and shaft

thing goes down the road cherry now
