I am wanting to control the egts more when i am force to do 55-60 in town. At that speed it will easly hit 1400 degrees at only 5-10 PSI on a hill, compared to about 1200 degrees at 15-20 PSI 70.


Drop to 4th gear, best your going to get. Twinning still will not fix that issue. Your too low in the rpm range to drive the 366 efficiently. It's the exact reason I have not gone to a 366 when everyone was telling me to. At the same speed I build 10-15psi of boost and 1000-1100 degrees. I've talked to a lot of guys back when with different turbine wheels and housings and no one could get them to build boost and keep egts under control when at 1500rpm. The lowest I heard of anyone building boost was 1700-1800 rpm and the turbo just starting to come on with higher egts.
 

MAXX IT OUT

Is that with your stocker/s480? So the best thing probably will be to raise 4th gears shift point.

If you're wanting to keep that 366 listen to James in changing the shift points. This way you'll stay on top of the charger. I think with big tires, a lift, and towing James might know a thing or two!!!:D
What turbine wheel and exhaust housing does the 366 have?

You could swap the 366 for a 364/68/0.91 or FMW65/70/14cm if you're wanting to stay an S300 turbo frame.
But if you're going to hooked to the trailer more I'd personally put a modified IHI in the valley and an S475 on top with a 96(maybe even a 92) turbine and 1.25 or 1.1 A/R. This will help spool up alot but you'll loose top end power. I'm more for quick spool up so I'll sacrifice top end, but this is a personal opinion.

At the moment I am thinking about a IHI or my ATS 3000 with a S475 with the 1.10 housing, but for the moment it will be getting the shift points change.

Route to Bowling Green is through PA, 76 to 70, to 71, then down 65 into KY. Seems to be pretty easy and ~836miles which would be about two tanks (I fill 25 gal but 34gal tank) per way. Thoughts on that route?

Any science to these sorta things other than shortest distance?

Science is basically place a string from point A to point B and use closest roads with highest avg speed
That's the route I'd go, its flatter then dropping down and running through WV, MD and Eastern KY

Started moving machines again for fall aeration here locally. Finally set up my truck with on board air and electric solenoids to control my air bags. So handy for moving different machines without having to be bothered with filling up my air tank etc.







Bringing home the roller from the pulls along with my gator and new Fast Hitch disc for my Farmall.
