Message: [QUOTE="uw mitch, post: 1031373, member: 13665"] After just a couple weeks I was driving home from picking up my father in law at train station. Coming up a slight incline the truck started bucking like crazy. The only thing that would smooth it out was downshifting and running around 2500 rpm. It was a holiday weekend, but I called Wes. He said if I could limp it home, to get it home then have it towed to his shop. It was really great of him to come into the shop on a holiday to figure out what was wrong. He was able to diagnose that Injector #8 wasn't firing. Luckily Wes builds injectors too, so he has all the tools and knowledge to know what he's looking at. Turns one dowel pin in injector #8 was totally sheered and the other 2 bent. He also noticed some damage on the injector cap, but was able to replace the pins, replace the cap and get the injector going again. For the number of injectors Tim builds I'm chalking it up to sh!t happens, but it's how a business owner handles it that matters to me. Tim got me a replacement injector in the mail quickly, but it's still sitting in the box until I have a chance to go back to Wes to have it installed. I'm still out a couple hundred bucks of labor for the injector that went south, so I'm hoping that in the end Tim or Jody make it right, since it wasn't my fault an internal piece of the injector failed. But we'll see. After driving a couple months, I was able to get back in re-dyno now with updated tunes for the HPOP and injectors. Tune - HP / Torque Modified Stock - 273 / 532 +80 Econo - 311 / 640 +120 Race - 311 / 650 And this is with stock E99 turbo, intake manifold and exhaust. I'm hoping that when I get in Wes' T4 kit with the Pius (Bell Turbo) LASB (modified S366) that the engine will breathe a lot better and I'll hit my goal of 400HP. [/QUOTE]
