    Water to Air Intercooler

    Makes sense, I was speculating on water's pressure inward keeping boost where it needs to be. I'm assuming a large set of compounds have to be good for 100+psi on a Dmax?

    Water to Air Intercooler

    70 psi is what it said for max boost on the frozen boost site. I've always kind of wondered if you pressurize the water to say 30psi then run 100psi boost doesn't that bring the overall pressure on the cores back to 70psi? Kind of like having the water offset the higher boost stress on the...

    4 Linked Duramax Thread

    Good luck and have fun with the build Trent. Interested to see the truck at the track this year, finally. Beer's on me, if we ever get together. :thumb:

    So is Steve Cole the new owner?

    Funny thing is, while I was over at DP reading one of your links there were five others reading it too. LOL Closed and over four years old. Nice!

    Turbo Gonna Go Boom??

    Yeah, I have EFI-Live and i considered that. Why would it only do it when cold and not once it warms up? I didn't think ECT effected vane tables...

    Turbo Gonna Go Boom??

    It actually barks, not just the surge because it does that too. I'm going to recheck the shaft play and see how freely it spins. I went to semi-synthetic last oil change and that's when it started to get cold here and I noticed the different sound. I'm wondering if when the oil is cold its...

    Turbo Gonna Go Boom??

    Well I put a stack in it not long ago and don't remember noticing the noise before then. I'm also straight piped. Stock mouthpiece. I wondered if it was just exhaust pulsing but it only does it when the engine is cold and goes away as it warms up. If it was exhaust pulse I wouldn't think...

    Turbo Gonna Go Boom??

    Stock turbo 05 LLY. When it's cold the turbo whistle isn't smooth (not hot rodding it, just creeping it out of the neighborhood). Best way I can explain it is it makes like a wa-wa-wa-wa-wa whistle sound as you gain RPM and pick up speed. I've tried to get a sound clip but I can't get good...

    EFILive Cummins 2006+ 5.9L & 6.7L BBR

    That was also the 1st and 2nd pull ever on that truck with a fresh single turbo set up and stand alone controller. I'm not saying we should all sell our trucks but it should make the CR dodge more competitive with a Dmax. When this comes out.......

    Help: Solid Front Axle Conversion/4 Link Rear Help?

    I thought it wasn't good to run a 4-link with leaf springs? Aren't they both trying to work on different arcs? I remember something about bind but don't remember the exact set up.

    Widest 8lug rims, who makes them

    Try this. http://www.holeshotwheels.com/index.cfm Call them. IIRC they were pretty reasonable priced and could build just about anything you want.

    turbo intake bells?

    This is interesting to me. I posted to another forum as well. Curious to hear others thoughts on this.

    ODRA / NADM Texas Diesel Roundup Sat. Oct 10th '09

    Sounds like we'll be making the trip down. Hoping this is the last 20+ hour drive this year. :)

    Retreads????

    Easy answer...go for it! I would not be concerned about running a retread especially just for a winter. We used to put install them on a regular basis and didn't see any more problems than a new tire had.

    Retreads????

    Biggest problems retreads ever had were throwing the tread off, leaking air between cap and casing, and balance issues (heavy spots.) With all the safey requirements for tires now, I wouldn't be scared to run a set. All those problems have already been previously addressed. I probably...

    Question: Allison TransBrake? Would you buy it?

    Trans brakes usually lock the trans in 1st and reverse so it'll hold you back, let you build boost until you hit the button or switch to release reverse. I think it would be a cool idea for the Allison. It does make me wonder how it will be on hard parts but that's what testing is for. Good...

    The Biggest Dirt Toy?

    I'd be interested to see it entered in the production class at the Baja 1000. Hat's off to ford for making the stickers actually mean something more.
