A-Team turbo on board

Had a chance to stop by the dyno today and talk to the guys. They can run diesels but only have the software to tune Fords. Not a problem since our trucks aren't field tunable. Also I'd need to remove the outer wheels because of width constraints.

The biggest issue for running the newer diesels is their drum is only a fixed 2000 lb unit so the trucks that are highly tuned and producing monster torque are overpowering it and not reaching full boost.

Seemed like some good guys there. Once I get the motor installed and broken in I'll be taking it over to them to dyno.

For those of you in VA, Performance Autosport is about 20 miles west of down town Richmond about 1 mile south of I-64.
 
Thanks for the info packratt i plan on putting my truck on the dyno when i get out of school so i can have a baseline before i start putting parts on.
 
sorry for OT, but i also posted in the FS / WTB section if any of you guys running ATT had a GM-8 before running a heath turbomaster let me know cause i need to test something, i would paypal you immediately if you could send a used complete in good condition unit my way. (the heath turbomaster as depicted below)

thanks and sorry again for posting here being ~ almost OT.
