LML Danville 3794 Stg2

Got my truck back today! Initial feelings are great! Quicker spool up than factory from what I remember. Danville turbo whistle lets you know this baby ain't stock and sounds great but not too loud. Turbo brake still works. Not sure if it's stronger than factory but initially feels just as good. Just tried it out for a couple stops in town. Will learn more in the coming days.
Motorops tune is running cleaner than the PPEI tunes with more power! Decent amount of smoke on the bottom end but then she cleans up really good. Awesome power on the Maxxx effort tune which is the only one I've tried so far. Motorops trans tuning feels nice and tight. When I gun it at 70mph it downshifts into 4th quick. Again decent amount of smoke then it cleans up great. Pre-turbo EGT's are at 1050F cruising at 78mph
For the numbers; with Motorops Maxxx effort tunes from Steve the truck is pushing 585rwhp and 1055ft/lb's. Pic of dyno run attached for viewing. Just for reference; before the Danville went in the truck it was only making 371rwhp on the Maxxx effort tunes from PPEI. Once the Danville was installed we were able to push around, if I recall correctly, the 550 mark with the PPEI tunes albeit with way too much smoke. Just wouldn't clean up.
These numbers were set on a Mustang Dyno which, from what I've read, notoriously read lower than Dynojet and Dynapack dyno's. Guys in the shop told me one guy had 720rwhp on their Mustang dyno then on the same day he took it to another shop and hit over 800rwhp. They weren't sure if it was a Dynojet or Dynapack dyno.
Well that's all I have for now. Again pic of dyno run is attached to this post. Holler if you have any questions of suggestions.

How is driveabilty compared to stock? Is it nice smooth and refined like the LML stock or is it quite noticeable that there is a change at light throttle driving around town? I only ask as I love that stock turbo tuned seems like factory until I push the go pedal then its a different ball game. And great that you got things figured out, I am looking forward to more installs and reviews so I know what way I will go next :thumb:
I'd say just as good! I just took the brother for a ride and he said it felt smoother to him. Whether that's the turbo or trans tuning or both I can't be sure. It's definitely peppy and smooth in town and you won't get any complaints from me on the drivability. Like I said previously, the Danville seems to light quicker than the stocker and sounds great!
Awesome man! Thanks for the update, I'm getting some funds together for a lift pump and this turbo. Keep us posted!
I may be mistaken but I seem to remember something about keeping this truck completely stock :roflmao:

So much violence and hostility...I also recall the I'm keeping this one stock
I built a Trans for a customers lml and he had the 68stg2r and it dynod 630rwhp with ppei tunes.
Seems odd for Kory to be 200hp less then someone else? But glad you got the truck running better :thumb:

Apples to apples it wasn't a 200 hp difference. I had noted what we were getting with the PPEI tunes before the 3794 Stg2 was installed then I wrote "Once the Danville was installed we were able to push around, if I recall correctly, the 550 mark with the PPEI tunes albeit with way too much smoke. Just wouldn't clean up."
371 on a Maxx effort tune is low. Definitely had a hard part or tuning issue. Was that with the cp3 or cp4?
That was with the CP3. Truck was never dynoed without the CP3. We all came to the conclusion the tuning was the problem. Before I switched to Motorops and was still using PPEI we all of a sudden jumped almost 200hp when they installed the Danville. Doesn't that seem like an extreme jump just from upgrading the turbo? From 371 to around 560?
Most lmls dyno between 480s n low 500s on a max effort tune, stock turbo, stock cp4. With the cp3 it should have been atleast 530 or so give or take. Every truck is different and so are the dyno but that 371 seemed low. Those are good numbers don't think I'm knocking the truck or anything but 560 still seems on the low side for a 68mm turbo and a bigish cp3. 372 to 560 is a big jump but with cp3 and turbo it makes sense.
Yeah that's why we still thought we had a tuning issue with PPEI. Motorops ended up making 585. Obviously 15hp isn't that big of a difference but the truck is running so much cleaner now. I know you're not knocking the truck. I'm in the same boat in thinking it seemed low. I would like to try out a Dynojet dyno just to see if it's true that they read roughly 12% higher than Mustang dyno's. If that is the case then I would be roughly around the 655rwhp mark. Would be very interesting to see the difference between the two.
Take it to a 1/4 or 8th track. Your et n mph will show you what kind of numbers your putting down.:thumb:
Glad it's running better for you.
Glad it's running better for you.
BTW 25k rail on a lml will def effect power kory tuned my lml after my 10 mm swap and I would still drop rail down to 24,500 so sent him some logs and he did something with the fpr adjustment and will hold 29 now cleaner and more power sounds like you prob had same problem in your tuning
