If your brave enough to follow me on facebook then you know I recently changed turbo's to a 63/68 SXE. I've been wanting to do this for a while, finally go pushed into it due to failure or potential blowing a turbo up.
Don't know where to go with the testing other than to tell you I'm so impressed with it that I'm almost speechless. Having said that I'm not just tooting for anyone, I bought the turbo, it wasn't given, sponsored or other, I'll probably never do that again. Also I will not knock another product, I don't roll like that!
The truck in question is an 01' SB/QC 4x4 4:10 gear, 305/70/16's and it's 12V converted. 215 pump set at 400cc's on Columbus Diesel's bench a long time ago, like 2008. Supply is an Airdog 200, injectors are 5x18's with a good bit of lift cut, 181 dv's and stock lines.
Cruise at 2000 rpm is around 550 degrees at a few pounds of boost, hit a slight grade and it will go up to 7-8 and 600 degrees. Cruising at 2K at those temps you can stab it and it will hit the gate at 48 psi by the time it hits 800 degrees. Light throttle stuff around town is just flat effortless, so dang driveable it's crazy. The plan is to drop down to some kinda crappy old 5x14's I have and see that happens, also I have really good records on fuel mileage with both set's of injectors.
Thanks to my bud T-Money (Taylor Manning) for both the injectors and Turbo!
