Weekend project

capt dong · May 14, 2014

for about $600-1000 i can find a used lift good for 8k lbs. i just dont want to set it up to take it all down since im in a rental space and would like to get out soon. i guess it would be cheaper just to have a shop do it but to me thats the fun part.

Topside creepers are the **** I have three. But if you don't want one hit up snap on or matco. They sell a thick foam pad the length of your body that's 25 dollars. Works pretty good and alot cheaper.

Great idea!

So how are you liking these turbos? Have you dynoed or got any track times? Still on stock fuel?

forcefed6.4ford · Aug 22, 2014

They're good. No issues to speak of. The truck won't see a track until the trans gets upgraded and there isn't a dyno near me. Still on stock fuel other than the tips. These turbos would definitely like more fuel.

Get yours on yet?

Haven't even had a chance to touch it and have a wedding to go to this weekend. Idk when I'll be able to work on it. I really don't want to have to take a vacation day from work to work on my truck lol. Are you studded?

How noticeable is the power gain? Will be blown away by the difference or is it hardly noticeable?

Honestly I changed so much stuff that I couldn't really compare it to a stock set up. It pulls far harder then the industrials I had on. Especially above 2500rpm. I'm going to do some wrapping and throw blankets on them to see what happens. My egt have been a little wonky for the last couple of weeks so I'm also going to change out that probe. I don't have and heat issues just some inconsistencies.

How did the radiator do? Mine went in without a hitch and it runs cooler when beating on it.

There was a fitment issue on the driverside upper support. Peter and I have talked about it and it will get swapped out when he has all of his orders filled. Temps are about the same but I run at about 10deg hotter then you guys because of my gearing.
