    S480/3794 high EGT’s

    A buddie of mines lbz with 10mm cp3, 60% injectors and single 3794 made 725 at danville. And his egt's aren't much higher than yours. I'd bet money you have a boost leak.

    Hot Shot Secret vs Optilube

    Exergy makes a diesel fuel additive now, I'd be willing to bet it's some pretty good stuff.

    Crankshaft Question

    I feel proper balancing has a huge impact on crank life. My first re-build that lasted 28K was balanced with a stock flexplate and balancer that they had there at the machine shop, then I was told I could just re-use mine. This time around I am using All-Season and they sent me the exact...

    Turbo Options ?

    If someone wants to tow on a 500 hp tune then yes, get a bigger turbo because your pushing the stocker too hard and things are gonna get hot. But on a stock motor, stock trans, stock fuel truck towing with less than 400hp you are 100% wasting your money and time trying to upgrade the turbo for...

    Crankshaft Question

    I broke a used lbz crank in 28,000 miles. The only way I would EVER run a stock crank again is if it was brand new. And at that point your just $400 away from a new callies. I went new callies this time...

    Turbo Options ?

    A bigger turbo is not going to tow as well at 1600-1800 rpms. Putting a bigger turbo on is like putting a bigger cam in, it moves your power on up in the rpms.

    Power Estimate

    I wouldn't ever try to run that 2600 tune even if you did upgrade the cp3 unless it's a carefully detorqued tune. Or your going to be re-building the engine.

    Turbo Options ?

    Keep the stock turbo.

    Power Estimate

    Who is doing your tuning?

    Power Estimate

    I'd guess you between 600-650 on tune 4. If tune 5 is really 2600 it probably wouldn't be any faster than tune 4 and maybe not even run as good as tune 4.
  15. OleBlackyLBZ

    Power Estimate

    2600 is still way too high.
  16. OleBlackyLBZ

    Power Estimate

    I'm 650-675 on stock/sportsman cp3 and 45% injectors, I think I'm around 21-200 uS... so these guys are right, a stock cp3 wouldn't even think about holding rail pressure on a 2800 uS tune with 50% injectors.

    New turbo time

    I can't tell in his signature but it may run even better on top-end as well if he is still running a stock cp3..

    New turbo time

    I think Mark designed the 72mm to be ran in a compound set-up. I could see it being really lazy as a single especially on a stock motor truck.

    New turbo time

    Easy choise, Danville 3794. A buddies done 721/1256 on danvilles dyno with a 10mm cp3 and 60% injectors. I'm around 675 on sportsman cp3 and 45%. Spools fast enough to make you smile every time you roll into it I have almost 100,000 miles on mine :)

    I'm not sure exactly what his set-up was but Rob Coddens done exceptionally well with his 47re.
