XChris1632X Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Because I like to go "overboard" with making things fast and Im afraid Id just end up messing shit up lol If you had a tranny and the front end parts you should be good with holding plenty enough power to have fun with. Let me know if you decide to build a trans, I would love to practice with an allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XChris1632X Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Got the tailgate all cleared and on the truck today http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0073.jpg Closer up shot to show some detail. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0074.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XChris1632X Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 I have a front receiver if you are interested in it also have a 160hp p pump Not that I dont believe that 160s can make some power but I am hoping for a little more than what that could give me, especially when I start thinking about spray.

GRN96WS6 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 That is a nice looking truck....did you paint it yourself or have someone do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XChris1632X Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 "practice" and "allison" scare me LOL Hey "practice" and "47re" turned out far better than expected. I didnt even have to pull it back out to fix anything! That is a nice looking truck....did you paint it yourself or have someone do it? Originally I was going to paint it myself but a deployment overseas got in the way once it was down to bare metal. When I returned home the place I had to paint it was no longer available. I had all the materials, tools, and knowlege to get the job done but with no where to do it. I eventually bit the bullet and took it to a local guy to finish a little bit of the body work and spray it. I got to be present and help with it still so I was ok. I took it there a year and a half ago but it wasnt until today that I got the truck back 100% complete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Shanton! http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/imagejpeg_2_4.jpg Opened up a box in the mail to find this today! Just a small S300 based turbo. One that should help me see some nice times at the track. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0102.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XChris1632X Posted April 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 (edited) Finally got it running today, I had a few suspension issues and needed some hardware but its on the road for track day.

XChris1632X Posted April 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 (edited) This has been machined to adapt the t4 housing to the t3 manifold. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0111.jpg I just realized how badly I need to clean up everything under the hood. Stock charger coming back off and for the last time. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0105.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0107.jpg Stock vs. New http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0108.jpg I have beat the shit out of this stock charger and it has absolutely no play. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0110.jpg Looks way to pretty to be in this engine bay http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0119.jpg I was in a hurry to get the truck up and running for track day. I am waiting for a little bit to add the external wastegate and the nitrous. I need to get some other bugs worked out and some other tuning for this charger. I took it out for a spin and it feels very strong. The roads were wet so I couldnt get crazy. It is a completely different truck now. I am going to need more fuel but I am getting close to the limits of my SOvp44 injection pump. Edited April 24, 2011 by I Drive It... It Breaks!

XChris1632X Posted April 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 should have ported your exh manifold I saw 100 deg drop in egt and faster spool I am going to when I take it apart to put the external wastegate on.

XChris1632X Posted April 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 So I had it out for a for a few shake down runs on the street with some good results. Cruising at 70mph -4lbs boost -925* exhaust temps WOT -I am seeing it hold around 50psi and around 55psi max in overdrive. -1400* is the highest I have seen the pyro For those that are not real big into the diesel world, the truck drives totally different. I have driven with many different turbos including similiar to this one but it still takes a little fine tuning for me to learn how to drive it different. I have to manual engage overdrive or it will smoke out a 4 lane highway. I do not think it is to laggy but the turbo wants to bark very easily in the midrange. It seems to want no boost or all of it when climbing the gears on its own. I did a couple boosted 4x4 launches. The roads were a little wet still but I left at 10psi and would spin all 4 tires but pull very strong. On the track a 15psi launch is either going to hook and leave hard as hell, or its going to break something. I hope to get it on the track soon but the rain date will prob be the soonest I see anything. I think the nitrous is going to go on soon and a few other mods to come shortly.

OneRunnin72SST Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Chris the truck pulls great and I am looking forward to the 13th. It gave me a diesel bug that I didn't need. I can also think of one STI that definitely doesn't want any. -Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneRunnin72SST Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 Are the brakes going to be straightened around for Friday. The weather is actually looking promising today and I want to see this thing run. -Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XChris1632X Posted May 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 I would do very very bad things to have this truck. My Ram is nowhere near this cool. Great job!!! Thanks. When I start to think about how much money I have invested in it, there is many times that I could believe stock is much cooler. Are the brakes going to be straightened around for Friday. The weather is actually looking promising today and I want to see this thing run. -Erik Hopefully the rain holds out. Either way, the brakes arent going on until I get home from the base. So I prob wont be done and ready to go with the truck until after 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
