The honest reasons for the low numbers is A: the wastegate blowing open, and B: not being max-effort tuned yet.
Freedom Diesel/ Brand X Performance Dyno Day, Dec 8th

Twins haven't been on for long / aren't really tuned. I've spent maybe a total of 6 hours playing with the tuning since changing over from the single GT4094R to the twins. Wastegate is butt-dyno adjusted only. Factory/stock intercooler. Stock boost tube on the driver side. Stock runners. No MAF on the truck.
The truck body also has 515,000 miles on it. Motor's been built a few times, tranny's been built a few times. Rear axle and driveshaft are factory/stock.
This was literally the first time the truck was dynoed with twins on. I've spent very little time changing the tuning from the tunes for the single.
First, I've haven't even pulled yet with the twins on. Second, around here some of the pulls don't care what you have for turbos, dual fuelers, etc. These are pulls at the local and county fairs. These are just-for-fun pulls, not serious competition.
515,000 miles on it and the body damage to match. Been in plenty of front end, rear end, and sideswipe accidents. The running boards on the side are bent up, and my transmission cross-member is bent up about 2" from slamming offroad.
With all the wiring and metal and runningboards and crap in it weighs 8,100lbs without me in it. Nobody expects it to do anything impressive

Hey schulte, can you share an underhood pic or two? Pretty or not. Also, how does it drive with the 4094 and the GT55? Thanks.

Drives awesome; I'll get a pic or two next time I'm home.
Yeah id like to see some pics to. Sounds awesome. Cant wait to hear what it makes for power dialed in.
Sorry I didn't get on here sooner to update you all, but we raised $1100 on Saturday thanks to dozens of diesel enthusiasts from all over New England. We ran 24 trucks in 6 hours- a feat that I didn't think was possible after having computer troubles start off the morning. Thank you to everyone that came and supported this cause, it means a lot to me to see friends, acquaintances, and strangers come together and have fun, meet each other, and work towards a common goal.
