Message: [QUOTE="madpowerstroke, post: 865838, member: 5867"] I bought the truck with the intenion of testing, the truck has a trailer hitch and a goose neck hitch. When I get the time I will be finding something to hook on to and tow it. The dyno run wasn't a plan thing, after the big turbo ran so well I decided to see what it made. The reason I bring that up is because I don't have a EGT gauge in it. It's on order along with a mechanical boost gauge. I might change my mind on the EGT gauge and run the EGT sensor to the CTS instead. That way I could put up the info on the CTS side by side to show how the truck reacts. The fact that stock injectors can spool a big VGT opens up the options for sure. I believe that stock injectors can spool any big VGT not just the ones I build. So now as a added option someone could get a big VGT turbo, hold off on injectors then add injectors down the road for more power. I always thought that air should be added, the more the better for increase performance and fuel economy. The red truck was getting hand calulated 22 miles to the gallon on freeway driving at 80-90 mph. I drove the truck from Mississippi to Altanta 8-9 hour drive using 3/4 of a tank of fuel. Again air is free and the more that can be used the better off you are in the long run. Now if the truck can tow with stock injectors and big turbo it would definitely be a good option, time well tell. After holidays I will also get some video of the truck running, I just have too much going on with family to even get a video right now. [/QUOTE]
