So how did it do on the hard part of the cajon pass? What kind of speed did you maintain after the 138 to the top? I pull that one regularly and its rough. If I can prevent traffic from slowing me down, I can manage 50-60 - but she's screaming. LOL

Here's what I did with mine. Fabbed a little mount on the fender. Only thing I need is either a small bladder with a valve or a way to route oil back to pan. Currently drain hose has a plug in it.

Wow - What a read! Awesome build! Just added you on Instagram.

Just to add to this...undo any CCV mod and put it back to stock. Set your chip to stock tune and remove it. They do plug in now. My engine actually shut off while plugged in during one of their tests...I played dumb and just restarted it. I use the RR FRX and it hides well under the decorative...

Derek speaks truth. I had a similar experience.

Rod screwed all the way in, vac line capped. Red/green removed and capped as well.

Just got some tunes (GH) for my recent build (38R, T500, AC Codes) Per suggestions, I've been running my 38R with the WG disabled and its been working fine thus far. Now that I am adding tunes, is it recommended that I re-enable the WG? Should I add a better actuator?

Prior to my last check here in the Smog nazi capitol, I set the tuner to stock and run it for about a week to give plenty of engine start cycles. They do a snap test and even hooked it up to the OBD port (I assume to check for codes and to see if the ECU has been cleared??) This year I need to...

Sorry to bump an old thread as I am planning on doing the pro-vent myself. But cant justify spending $400 on BD's kit - although it's nice and pretty. I found the ProVent 200 for $125: http://www.republicsales.com/prodcat/MANN-FIlters-Provent-200.asp And if you want to use the same hoses as...

I run V&B codes on my Excursion as well. Always wondered how it'll affect towing though. Anyone seen the setup from Full Traction? Kind of spendy - but looks like a good setup. https://full-traction.com/model.php?F-250%2F350-Super-Duty-Suspension-Systems&m=10&b=4&t=1#n Mag write up...

Why leave the green line in? What would be the purpose if the red is disconnected?

After adjusting/re-tightening CAC boots, EGT's seem better. Is there any difference between leaving red line capped vs removing both red/green all together? Anyone run this? http://www.dieselsite.com/19995-2003ford73lpsdwastegatecontroller.aspx Been reading good stuff about it.

Just removed the red and green lines. Found it leaking at the rubber fittings, plugged the openings with rubber caps.. Also found some minor leaks at the CAC boots. Going to do a long drive today...we'll see how it does.

I didnt do a compressed air/soapy solution test yet - next on my list. But I did examine all exhaust connections and they look sealed to me as there is no soot evident. I've punched it here and there and boost reached about 25psi. I imagine thats all I'll see on a stock tune. Yeah I've been...

Got it -thanks! Warcat - I got a bit more than I planned into it. But I looked at it this way: I dont have $60k+ for a 6.7 and still need the room for the family. Wanted to build a solid runner and an improved tow vehicle. Mike - yeah I am on SoCaps. IDK where any local yards are - but there...
