Turbo Talk

[Chrisn162001]

I must be out to pasture all alone I have the stainless diesel 2nd Gen. Kit with the S465 tuned by ray I love it.But It does not start to light until 1900 rpm and I can leave a cloud and not see the car behind me on stock fuel.i am at about 8500' in elevation And running easily 1050 E G T's all day long not towing I have to be very careful.Ray has me talked into twins but not quite sure what the 2nd turbo should be.I have heard lots of people say that there egts are way better I can't help but to wonder if I have something wrong with my truck. Wy wife is at her limit with my truck
Man it has great power but I can't use it due to my EGTS.
And I know Ray is like I beaten a dead horse here so just saving some money for my twins..Anyway just curious if anyone here has had any similar experience on this topic..https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...3058209ba2.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...a58f5f3437.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...d5ed91e5d4.jpg

Have you checked for boost leaks?

When I was on the 465 I was around 770-850 egt at 80mph with about 5-6psi boost.

At sea level though.

My gut tells me it’s the elevation difference unless you are up there too. What’s your elevation?

Over speed the shaft bearings impeller started to rub the Compressor housing/

The power seems to be great right now especially if I could use all of it and control my EGT's.

Maybe you could give water meth a shot?

Cheaper than compounds and have been known to cool things down a couple hundred degrees or more while adding power.

Im at sea level. I took the truck to Yellowstone last year which they are 8000 ft above sea level and was ranging mid 800s - low to mid 900s on flat roads empty truck with 35s on 3.42 gears.

Still first thing I’d do is check for boost leaks if he hasn’t checked yet.

Yah after the mishimoto intercooler mishimoto radiator and monster RAM grid delete my max bost went from hi 30s to low 20s I checked all the boot clamps again after one blew off on the hot side.

Intercooler should cool air and make it more dense which is why you’d lose some boost psi but still make more power.

You only see in the 20s psi for pushing the turbo?

Did you pressurize the system when you checked for boost leaks or just check the clamps?

Better Intercooler is not gonna drop you 15-20 lbs of boost.

Yes, but the cap I made to pressurize leaked I need to get a new one.

Just wondering if I should pressurize at the Turbo or at the inner cooler on the hot side?

I've seen in the mid to high twenties on boost max at WOT.

I read somewhere on here opening up the flow with the inner cooler and tubes would lower pressure which is how boost as read.
