Message: [QUOTE="4cstr, post: 365468, member: 516"] Took the camper out for the first time this past weekend, and I think I may have underestimated just how hard a time my truck would have pulling this thing. The camper, loaded up for the weekend...is crossing the scales around 12k pounds. Here is the vitals on the truck... E99 250 original turbo 6L CAC Billet Stealth stage 1 hpop Monsterbox Trans factory trans cooler plus TruCool aux tranny cooler Casserly stage 1 single shot injectors DP 40hp tow tune aFe stage 1 intake (removed box..so element is sitting on fender) On flat ground I couldn't hold the truck in overdrive. I would try to slowly accelerate and my EGT's would get above 1250 very quickly. If I kicked off the OD...EGT's came down and I could drive 65 to 70 without issue. When hills did show up...had to drive by the gauge as EGT's would climb very very quickly when trying to get up the hill. On one long uphill grade...had to kick on the flashers since I topped the grade at 40 mph. My buddy in his 2012 250 told me he had to let off the throttle so he didn't blow my doors off. :owned: A new truck just isn't in the cards right now (trying to refi the house), so what do I need to look at or do to help the truck tow the camper better. Do I go back to stock injectors (de power the truck) or water injection or ??? I really need to get the most bang for my buck here...so lemme know your thoughts. [/QUOTE]
