I was going to buy the powermaster, but I didn't want to spend the $300+ that Jegs and Summit wanted, so I decided to try a Bosch starter from a supplier of mine. It is a brand new starter, not a rebuilt, and when I got it, it said on the box more torque than stock starter plus a 12 month...
It reminds me of a ricer website turned diesel. Everytime I posted something positive for the ATT it was because I have 4.10 gears. Then they were hung up on boost numbers. "can't get more than 18PSI out of the ATT". I could get almost 20 out of my GM 8 but it wasn't doing anything. Then...
So on my 6.5 I had 4000 miles, 144,000 on the engine, but I have a remote by-pass system with an amsoil 2 micron filter. First time lead was 5, second analysis it was 16, and this time it was 29. I will try an scan it tomorrow. I'm due for another oil change now so I will send this one in...
May 2011 I did an oil sample on my truck. Lead was in the green at 5. In Nov. 2011 it was 18. I finall sent in my oil from Feb. 2012 and now it is in the yellow at 29. What would cause lead to be high besides a bearing. Kind of making me nervous now. I didn't think anything of it when I...
NICE!!!!!! I get a grin every time I drive mine as well. And I'm running Heaths tune. I would love to try an OBDII tune. I don't know if I am just getting used to driving it, or if the ECM is adjusting better, but I really don't get any smoke anymore unless I lay into it. I am pretty happy...
Really happy with my ATT. Would not go back. But I don't have it on a mechanical injected truck either. I might be in the future though. Thinking of getting one for my daughters 6.2L.
I know. I think it's pay back. I remember getting yelled at for leaving the tv and lights on. He comes to my house now and doors are left open, tv is on and nobody is in the room, every light in the damn house is on. I think he does it just to piss me off.
Yeah I only get smoke if I stomp on it and if I take off normal it doesn't smoke. I only had the golf cart in the toy hauler, so probably about 8000-8500. I wanted to check my IAT's but my Dad has my ultragauge and I didn't bring my scanner on this trip. I am going to order another ultragauge...
For sure. I just towed the toy hauler this weekend with my Heath tune. And it is a totally different truck. It tows so well now. Some smoke, but not bad. And boost comes in really quick. We need to figure out how to make this tuning work on OBD-II trucks. Really the only smoke is of the...
I've only had it on the freeway once, but it stays engaged when coasting until I hit the brake or it gets down to about 40 mph then it disengages the clutch. But I haven't driven it to where I can see if it re-engages after I hit the brake. I'll try and see in the next couple of days. How are...
Pretty close to the same. It feels quicker off the line with Heaths, but I couldn't get the TDC offset set with the Kojo one. I do get more black smoke with Heaths than with KOJO's. But I like the firmness of the shift better with Heaths. I am going to tow my trailer with the Heath tune and...
Well, I've had mine since March, I think about 4500 miles, and would not change a thing. Especially now. I just received a reflash from Heath and it is bad a$$ now. I can not believe how much more power it has. I am only hoping my exhaust temps don't go through the roof when I tow the toy...
I did this stuff called fatmat. It's similar to dynomat. Put it under the carpet and in the doors. Made my stereo sound better and quieted down outside noises.
Exactly. Only problem is your last sentence. A buddy of mine has a 1996 powerstroke and we have similar size and weight trailers, he couldn't believe how good my truck pulls my trailer. So he put an intercooler on his after he saw how much it improved mine on long steep pulls. When I told...
I get how a turbo works. I must have the one and only truck then that performs better with the ATT at lower RPM's than a GM 8(second to last line of my last post, " Even empty, if I go to about 1/2 throttle off the line my boost starts coming up right around the same.) I don't care that my...
I can't wait to see 6.5L results either. But I am still confused on this whole lag thing also. I saw the post about lag being reduced to 1600 so today when I went fishing with my son I watched what my boost did towing a 17' aluminum boat. I'm thinking about 1200-1500 lbs., I had zero boost at...
