  2. I towed about 11k lbs I wanna say up a steep hill without a good running start, EGTs were about 1400 and boost was about 30 psi, decent I wanna say
  3. Installed the injectors, gets 30 psi on the fuel saving mode and will hit 35 and then the wastegate opens so they seemed to of helped out.
  4. You think the injector will wear out that quick with 50 miles on them?
  5. I got some DFI 7x.010 injectors from a friend for $350, maybe 50 miles on them and gonna work on my gauges this week also.
  6. It should be set for 35 psi from their site. I was having an issue with the wastegate hose popping off. I thought of blocking it off to disable the wastegate to see what that does.
  7. Like I can take off quick on level 10, I'm hitting 27 psi before I hit 45 mph and it's usually hangs around 2900 rpms when I shifts. I haven't messed with the turbo but did notice the wastegate linkage has been rubbing on the oil return so my guess it hadn't been working exactly but I did bend it some off the line.
  8. I found some 7x.010 injectors locally like new but they are SAC vs VOC, I read mixed ideas what style is better
  9. I have a mechanical boost gauge but I haven't gotten around to installing it. The Edge CTS maxes out until 19 because of the boost fouler with the Quadzilla. I've been running with the Quadzilla up all the way, it does smoke a little more and I got the boost up to 27 psi vs 26 psi. I may look into getting some some 150 HP injectors soon. Probably gonna work on my gauges this week. The Quadzilla and Edge are pretty right on until the Edge CTS display maxes out.
  10. I turned the tuner up to 10 and I was able to get it to 27 lbs of boost.
  11. I have turned it up more but I wanna say there wasn't much a difference but I will try that today but maybe I do need larger injectors. I just think the EGTs will be higher with bigger injectors
  12. I made a tester and I have an intake plenum leak which I fixed but can get much more then 15 psi before it pops off. Maybe the injectors are too small so I'll into some 150s
  13. I have no problem spooling it unloaded and loaded, it just stops building boost at 25-26. I can take off quick and max out within 2 blocks. Smoke is pretty manageable too. I had 110 HP nozzles before but swapped them for other reasons, went smaller because I felt they were too big. I know I need to work on a tune for my truck too.
  14. I haven't been on a forum in many years but you kinda need to go back to them when you have a real question that needs to be answered. I have an 01 Dodge Ram 2500, auto, Quadzilla, 75 injectors, 62/68/12 and a Airdog I run the Quad on the stock tune on the fuel saving tune and bump it up one when towing I just installed my 3 piece manifold so I have my Quadzilla and Edge CTS probes installed and have really noticed my EGTs. They seem to be around 800 in flat ground and up to 1100 on small hills. I was told maybe it has a boost leak which I have checked. My truck can hit 25 lbs quick but kinda seems to max out but my wastegate should open at 35. Maybe I need a different turbo configuration or something but I just think my EGTs are high. Recently got the Moparman High Idle Swtich, install was easy but I just got it for the MPG mode.
