maybe were just comparing apples to oranges here and that why nothing makes sense.
to turn up the boost on my truck i have to adjust the wastegate or boost controller.
yall can keep this fight going until morning, and i will make sure to ask who wins. i have class in the morning, so im hitting the sack. i will make sure to let yall know when i get the dyno results, and how much i added to the numbers...

you've got 34psi... and still have a limiter? set to 100?
im only at 8psi and my limiter has been bumped to 127.
something smells a bit fishy.
i dont see how they can even tune without moving that limiter up. and 34psi ... i would assume built block.
is this ur moms daily driver or does she race this thing

say that a stock diesel turbo setup is 6-7psi...
they must be full of ****.
Im not doubting that a diesel can do 34psi... but your tellin me that it comes with 20 something psi stock. and that u guys only bumped it up a little bit

as well as eveerything else. at 34psi u should have much more power than that.

wrong like i said 28 lbs stock!!!! and stock hp at the rear wheels is only about 295hp diesel's are difrent then gas go to dieselpowermag.com!!! trust me u will learn alot about diesel just by reading the forums...
y do u think diesels have so much more trq then gas... they have so much more boost!!!!! and thats y diesels are way better for towing... hp= acceleration trq= pulling power (in a diesel) semi's have 600hp and upwawrds of 2100 lbs of trq!!! thats y they can move so much heavier stuff!!! the brand new powerstroke's make 39 lbs of boost stock!!!!!!! cause there dual trubo!!!! i know that casue they come stock with a boost gauge and i know moms boost becasue we put aftermarket guages on there so we can monitor the boost the egt the water temp and one more but i cant think of it off the top of my head... o yeah the trans temp.
were they tlkin bout semi's or pickups pickups make more then semi's casue there pumpin more air threw a smaller turbo... semi's only make about 15... but the turbo is so huge that they dnt get much psi but they get way more flow!!!! a semi turbo is twice as big as a pickup turbo...

diesel's also make more trq casue there pistons are so much bigger then a gassers... take yours out and they will be what at the most 2 inches in diameter... just a guesss.... take a semi's out they are more they are more then 6 inches in diameter... thus making that much more explosion everytime!!! now a pickups pistons would be smaller like 3 to 3.5 inches in diameter
okay,
i believe you..
but i dont beleive its as fast as you think it is.
not trying to be a ****.. just something wasnt making sense to me.
heres all the timeslips and dyno sheets etc of these f250's 350's etc
