Thumbs up Updated dyno numbers - 800 rwhp ALL BOOST

On the advice of a few turbo experts, I removed the 3" downpipe and single 3" exhaust on my turbo setup, and fabricated a new 4" downpipe, which splits into my previous dual 3" exhaust out each side of the truck. I put the truck back on the dyno, for re-tuning and new numbers.

Last time out, I was running 25psi and had started to run out of injector (60s)just about 5k rpm. I upped the base fuel pressure by 10 psi and that gave me the needed fuel. I adjusted the new A/F curve, then tested some timing settings until I was happy with the power. I've got a flat nice 11.8 A/F. The power was a little lower than last time, then I realized that my boost was bleeding off at high rpms. I re-routed the wastegate lines to put pressure on the top of the gate, and that solved that issue. Back up to 25 psi. Finalized the A/F and timing and was pretty happy with the results.

We got 772/813 SAE, 804/833 STD and 806/834 Uncorrected

For those who don't know the corrections, SAE corrects the actual numbers to something like 82 degrees, STD corrects actual numbers to something like 70 degrees, and Uncorrected is what the truck aactually did, right there, in the current air (which was just about the STD correction tonight).

I'm quite please with the results, the truck didn't miss a beat on the dyno. Of course these are race tune numbers, with C16 in the tank. When you make this much power, unleaded race fuels just don't cut it.

BTW the truck is still for sale. I'm amazed nobody has bought it yet. All the graphics have been removed, and it just looks like a plain red 01 now, but makes 800rwhp. Talk about a sleeper .

Awesome Sal. Your truck is a steal at that price, good luck on your sale. I'm going turbo also, but only shooting for 725-750 rwhp.

Untouchable for all boost SaL. I could only imagine what it would do with a set of updated heads and cams on it. Gets some runs at the track on that beast, and maybe it help sell it quicker.

Hey I got a question all ?
Whats the highest ALL MOTOR numbers ever put down on a GEN II ???

BTW Sal, are you sure you dont want to make your Beast even more stock appearing before selling? I know someone that might be willing to swap their set up for your turbo set up

I have said it before and I will say it again. SAE corrected numbers are for naturally Aspirated vehicles only and do not apply to forced induction vehicles.

Sal, Great work on the truck! No video of the dyno hey? I would have loved to hear and see that thing!!

holy ***** ... That is exactly what you want too... High HP at Peak RPM's.

So when you go down the track and the areodynamics become the biggest factor, you are making more and more HP to compensate for that.

Sal, I think you hit the nail on the head with this setup. Now start producing a turbo kit!

Looking at the market right now, it appears the ported eaton is leading in sales, followed by either the KB or MP. The WHipple will be there, but it'll take another two weeks.
So right now the market is stagnant ... It seems people are saving their money for the whipple (which hasn't been proven to make power, but looks good).
Right now is the time to market a turbo kit! A few are being produced by individuals.

Those #'s are just amazing.

Any plans to throw in some NOS to the setup anytime soon... man I bet those numbers will be sick. I am guessing 950/1050 with a 125 shot of nos.
