Message: [QUOTE="DZL JIM, post: 1507655, member: 153"] I respect every individuals real world input. Who am I to question what you have experienced. What I can say, however, is it's fine if you know less than 10 people who tow successfully with big nozzles. I am on the phone with 10 to 20 people every day talking about what injectors they have, what they like, what they think they need, what they want, etc. 10 to 20 people [I]every day[/I], for the past 13 years. No idea what that amounts to, but it's a lot of people. And my experience is that [I]nobody[/I] with big nozzles likes to tow heavy. They run high EGT's and have tons of smoke. I repeatedly tell customers if you tow heavy go with as small of a nozzle as possible. What people need to understand is there are a zillion differences between your truck and every one else's, and each truck needs to be tuned and dialed in individually. Tuning, tuning, tuning. For the most part. Having a properly sized turbo to match injectors, and good tuning, and you can do whatever you want. I constantly read post like yours and immediately get jealous. I have been modding my truck for 15 years and I am still trying to get good tunes for it to do what I want. The only time I achieved this was when I had Bill live tune my truck with 238/200%. The truck was great afterwards, with all of it's 380 hp. It needed to be tuned back so much with those big nozzles, what's the point. I can get almost the same power with 180/30%. No need to lecture me on how things work, I get all the theories. It's just not realistic to run big nozzles for the vast majority out there, for many reasons. Sorry for the long post. I guess my point is it's easy to read what someone has done with their truck and want the same result. But it's entirely different to actually try and reach that same result. [/QUOTE]
