You must not go into the PA chapter forum.


Good numbers Jon ! How far is your power screw turned in, if any? Maybe ditch that PDR pin and get a Denny

Does your truck have a 12cm or 16cm housing on it? i see you got the hx35 on.

the power screw is to the collar. i have a ddp pin i wish i knew about denny t when i did that but i think the next on the list is traction bars then a low pressure lift pump. i think the its a 16 because i didn't gain any boost i actually lost a couple of pounds.

take the collar off the full power screw and screw it in close to runaway and it will really wake that thing up, I'm surprised how much of a difference it made on my truck.

Too bad you weren't there Saturday, John. We could have gotten better numbers than that.

I remembed the first time my old first gen go strapped to the rollers. She laid down a whopping 238hp/585lbft. Had about 15 trucks that day and I only beat out a Dakota . It was a kick in the behind for me to do more mods to it...the truck eventually made 341/841. I loved that thing. I sold it, got a 2nd gen dually with cheap mods and had fun for 3 years, just sold it and now have a slow 2nd gen.

Don't worry when i dynoed last week, I only made 307hp, and I'm pretty sure i was the lowest number of the day. But i was still happy about it, I've put a lot of time, work, and creativeness and some money and almost doubled my stock hp so I was happy. A lot of guys liked to see an old truck like that too. Most were in the 450ish range, and when i get up to that and start beatin some "tuned" durapukes then I'll be really happy.

Hey we all start somewhere right? The first time I was on the dyno I made 316.1hp. That was with the stock H1C/16 my honed 370's, BD 3.5 exhaust, K&N drop in filter, etc.

The 333 and the 338hp runs were with propane. the only good thing about propane was I got 26mpg on the wa down to the dyno.

keep up the good work 1bad93.
