    Yep 2 less bolts won't hurt a thing using that stuff!

    2.8L Canyon Test Toy

    I'm thinking next week. The kit has been ready but Scott used it on his mock up motor to display the setup at a few events. He made some improvements to the down pipe & is also designing an emissions present twin kit using those parts so I understand the delay.

    The trans hasn't thrown any fits yet. I have felt it do something weird when lugging it hard with the tc unlocked but I'm thinking it's just blowing through the converter. I'll know what that is when something lets go.

    2.8L Canyon Test Toy

    LOL I have to hurt something before it gets to come off. I'm not planning to push it like this until I get the twins on. Maybe I can match this number with fuel only & twins. Then we'll hurt the trans & build it.

    2.8L Canyon Test Toy

    Well I'm still waiting on the twins to show up. I had the Canyon on the dyno playing with the tunes. We're so limited by the stock turbo it's crap. We were making roughly 200 HP keeping EGT's in check. So my buddy David walks up & suggests we ghetto fog it. I think it's safe to say we set some...

    Tuning Out Boost Surge

    Have you tried setting the vane tables to resemble the stock LLY vane tables? That has been a good starting point for tuning the 3794. Also make sure the max & minimum vane position tables aren't set to contradict the desired vane position tables. I have not experienced any surge with the 3794...

    Updates to The Dumpster

    Glad to see the dumpster coming back around! You always put on a good show. Honestly you made stock motor 10s look easy. Really it's damn hard lol Since you're doing a motor build, you know that 72/87.10 can handle lots & lots of spray:D

    Yeah there is definitely risk involved with taking on a new platform. No one knows the limits until someone does the testing & finds them. We do our testing on our own trucks so the customer doesn't have to experience those things.

    I know I hate these tires! This will be the last stock turbo burnout this little guy gets to do. My twin kit ships next week. I'll post another video then that might be more to your liking:D

    Before anybody asks, it can do the same burnout without the smoke, but why would we if we have full control of the ecm:happy2:

    Nice work Kyle! I can't imagine how fun that setup is to drive!

    2.8L Canyon Test Toy

    Got a tune dialed in that I really like for daily driving. Quick throttle response & smooth progressive power. No lights on the dash. It's completely happy in it's current state. I increased transmission line pressure a bit and now the shifts are very quick. A had a lot of running around to do...

    2.8L Canyon Test Toy

    I didn't make a video but I will post one soon. I spent a little more time getting it to be happy with the deletes & gutted stock exhaust. Now it runs great! It's like a whole new truck... again

    Yeah I'm pretty excited about it for sure! I put a larger tune in & did a smokey burn out in the shop haha! It's nice to let it breathe

    2.8L Canyon Test Toy

    Went back to a stock delete tune just to see what that was like. It throws a small puff & hazes a bit stock so I'm not surprised it gave me trouble when I added power down low. I installed an Edge Insight with EGT probe & drive & boost pressure sensors. Now to see how it responds to more fuel &...

    Ok got the delete done. Until I get the exhaust in I just gutted the stock stuff.

    2.8L Canyon Test Toy

    So I found some time to tow with this truck. The trailer was roughly 4K lbs & I was on the stock tune. It has plenty of torque at part throttle in the low rpm range but if you wanted to get up to highway speed fast it would need to be tuned. I wrote a tow tune for it that is very mild but really...
