    S480/3794 high EGT’s

    Hey guys I haven't been on here in a while, op tempo is pretty wild. Might not get to do as much as I like with the truck right when I get back but I'll take care of my big ticket items first. Looks like firstly I'll get the S480 rebuilt as an S488 and have a shop run through my converter and...

    S480/3794 high EGT’s

    Well had a local turbo guy check out the S480 Says he can’t promise me that it’s the root of my boost problems but could definitely be a contributing factor and it’s his recommendation it needs to be rebuilt. Kinda sucks but excuse to get a bigger boi and send this unit off to get rebuilt and...

    Yeah I checked I couldn’t find anything loose or any spot in the engine bay. I’ll look around the drivers side manifold tomorrow There’s a slight gap on the charge pipe from the s480 outlet but it has been there since I’ve owned the truck and the v band pulls it together quite nicely. it also...

    Got some shaft play :/ wheel spins fantastic. I was unable to move the 3794 wheel whatsoever even though it doesn’t like to spin nearly as easily as this one. no scoring, scrapes or touching the housing whatsoever. Blades look immaculate to me. However it does have play and can’t be spun if...

    It's not too hazy but I can tell on spool up it's definitely smokier then it used to, it's kinda hard to see the haze as well as my axle dump fell off and haven't welded it on, so it's mid cab dump lmao. Though spool up is like driving a gigantic single, takes either til 4k in 2nd to carry over...

    I only have the one gauge tapped before the y bridge. 480 looked good last I had it off but if it’s bad, then excuse to get a billet 485 or 488 I’ll look over her when I get home I really appreciate it.

    Here's my logs from today on switch 3 and 5 (it'll show as 2 and 4 on the logs though) Showing over a little over of 50 psi on both which 5 hits a hell of a lot harder then 3 so maybe that's done in timing? But my mechanical boost gauge shows 35-37psi for 3 and 41-44 psi. Thanks for all the...

    I’ll try to get that log today. I only have 3 days before the truck goes into storage. I had a video of pull previously, tune 3 made 41ish (a little over 40) psi and spooled Stupid fast. And thanks for the knowledge on how they command stuff on the diesel I love learning this stuff! truck is...

    Did you know they have hellcat durangos?

    Here I am going to meet my buddy at his dads few months ago when my truck ran right. (His dad has a built kitty he bracket races in the 9’s with LOTS of trophies) And as I’m about to get off the free way this tinted out Durango that looks brand new and aggressive (thought it was an SRT8 or...

    They looked good but you're probably absolutely right. I never thought about that, I have solid mounts sitting at the house, I just haven't slapped em on. All the other mounts are solid aside from the poly mount under the transfer case, but it's also new. What's the difference between bolted...

    S480/3794 high EGT’s

    Yeah all my boots have worked fine except for the one off the valley charger, it's a 2.5 - 3" boot and no matter what I do it blows off, regardless of how great of a clamp I get for it, hairspray anything. Blows off anytime I turn the truck up to five, around 45-50 ish psi. It held up 60+ psi...

    Yeah new bd intercooler seems to be the move anyway. What everyone’s opinion on vibrant clamps? I talked to a shop and they said they were terrible and I’ve heard they’re better then V bands. what’s the general consensus? All my “fast” cars never made enough air to bend v bands and blow off...

    S480/3794 high EGT’s

    Well finally got time to take the turbo off and seal it. gained 5psi and spool time is about the same. Used to be faster. I’ll clean the MAF again. I redid all my boots except for the plastic passenger side IC piece. Got a stronger feeling too much boost might’ve hurt the stock intercooler. I...

    I’ve never had one of these apart. It’s just the arp bolts. I’ll pry it off. Scrape off any glue left (it came glued and bolted). Inspect, a lil rtv and bolt her up. Am I missing anything?
