Message: [QUOTE="TyCorr, post: 1423871, member: 1451"] But you're glossing over the pw required to achieve that. So saying "400hp is the max" is not true. And saying that is misleading in that you truly need to define the exact power that 400hp capable setup is making when its too hot. So a 38r will clean up a tuned set of ad injectors but wont keep cool a 400hp potential truck when its making 110 hp cruising down the road at 70? That hardly makes sense. And yes my egts with a 175/80 are way hotter than they are with 250/200s. But that's a universal theme. A truck tuned correctly with a fast nozzle will run cooler than a truck with a 300hp nozzle thats stretched out to 400+. Which is exactly what an 80% nozzle is. Will an 80 make more? Sure. Hotter than hell though. As evidenced in this thread. I just about ordered 200s this last time and if I did, they were getting 200 over nozzles. My economy tune maxes out at 2.4ms of pw. It totally rips. Its funny. Its becoming my favorite tune because its actually efficient. Its just "right". It doesnt smoke alot(if at all). It is cool in terms of egts. My fuel economy is the best its EVER BEEN. I drove 300 miles today into a 40mph headwind and that leg i filled up and still managed 17. Im guessing the few miles the wind was whipping around "pushing" me was increasi g the avg? I filled it up and head home. Ive got another 270miles on the tank and im at 3/4 of a tank. It'll be around 22mpg. This is cruising though. Not stop n go. Running across town and 8 miles at a time its pretty bad. Like 13mpg bad. Now that im knocking on 60k on a setup like this i can say i completely understand the smart, ********** members when they said "a 200% nozzle is the best nozzle for a truck that needs to do everything." You could make 300 rwhp all day and set the pyro at 650-700 degrees. [/QUOTE]
