Thought I would start my own thread because we were kind of cluttering the top 500 fastest dmax list. LOL
Never had I thought I could break an 8.50 in the 1/4 mile let alone come close to a 7 sec pass. I know I'm still a long ways away from a 7, but with help from some great sponsors it might be possible!!
We started the year off with all new everything. Wagler Competition built me a compete long block with all forged internals and their HIP heads. Exergy Performance supplied me with all new injectors and cp3 pumps. Bullseye Power supplied me with three new turbo's speced out by Danville Performance. HSP Diesel took the truck in and made a new triple turbo kit, front cover and intercooler. Vibrant Performance supplied all new VanJan clamps, AN line and fittings. AirDog supplied two new 4G200 pumps.
Over the winter Danville Performance put the new setup on their engine dyno and we learned a lot from the new setup. Once Mark had the tuning all dialed in I installed it into the truck. The first three times I had the truck out I broke something. It was a big learning curve with all this extra HP. Between me fixing the truck and my family I didn't get out much this year.
I've been working my ass off chasing wiring problems with the truck. I finally think I have it all figured out and now we're starting to make some good passes. I went to SDX and took 3rd place with a 5.9 in the 1/8th. fighting electrical problems.
Last week I took the truck out to a 1/4 mile track and made some passes with all the electrical problems fixed. On the lowest hp tune the truck went 8.9. Mark Broviak started adding fuel to it and we ended up running a 8.49 @ 164mph. Looking at the video of my tires on the hit they were getting all balled up and taking a beating. We decided to call it quits for the night and order some new tires. I went out yesterday and didn't change anything from last week except for the tires and pressure in them. The truck went 8.39 @ 168mph and pulled my best 60ft ever with a 1.32.
All this would not be possible without the help from my family and my sponsors!! Thanks again to all who have helped me out. Next time I have the truck out will probable be Oct. 29th at my local track. They have a Diesel day there and they always have great track prep and the air is nice and cold!
Sorry for the long post guys! I will be adding some video soon.
