I want to say it works incredible 7x009 injectors alone with truck running its factory program, smoke is greatly reduced actually almost gone has good power off idle while towing egt's are a non issue.
Turbo is actually lighting sooner as its breaking in. moving slow at 1000rpm it's got a pronounced whistle that it didnt used to have. No it's not a leak ;) doesnt whistle like a ford but it is noticeable. You can hear the air being pulled through the filter pretty fiercely if that's a word
towing it has power to accelerate up grades while egts stay below 1200. Before it had power but unable to accelerate because egt's would climb.
I did have to turn smarty off because it was just making to much for the tranny to handle under light throttle accelerating with a load. Empty it was fine.
Boost numbers without smarty seem to be down about 5 ish psi. I havent broke 40 since going to the factory tune. 38ish is the most I've seen dragon a trailer up grades. Driving around empty it hits 30 but that's about it. I rarely push the pedal down very far.
I dont know what fuel mileage is it's spending quite about of time idling now that were dropping below zero.
Not sure what my next upgrade is maybe a valve body. Just leave it alone and save for what I'm sure is coming since it's got over 150k on it.
Yeah I need to do something about the ugly turnbuckle holding the waste gate closed.
I gota say I'd recommend a 62 turbo paired with 100-150 injectors heck maybe 75s. No programmer needed.
I'm sure timing tuning would get some more power and fuel mileage bit this set up is bolt and go, at least on my truck.
