New Silver 62 Turbo
Hey guys,
I just wanted to put up a post on my new Silver 62 turbo. I jot to tell Industrial Injection did a great job getting me this turbo. I bought one from a local guy and it turned out to be in less then perfect condition so I sent in out to be rebuilt and ordered a new Silver from II. They got the parts in and Overnight-ed the new Silver to me. I put it in today and man when she lights the truck has no problem lighting up all 4 - 35's. I still have some tuning to do but things are good so far. She spools a whisker slower then the stock er but not real bad. I don't see more then 35lbs of boost so I need to take a look see at the boots and I may give the boost elbow a turn or two.
I'll report back on egts and boost pressure.
See ya,
Topper

Maga,
I don't know what there set for. I thought it was 40 but not sure. I'll call II today and find out. I got ta thinking maybe my Commander wont read over 35 psi. I have never seen more then 32 or 33 no matter what turbo I have had on the truck. Does anyone know if anything needs to be done to the Commander to get it to read higher? I can still get the truck plenty warm I know I saw 1420 once and that wasn't a real hard run.
Thanks,
Topper

Should be set at 45lbs from II. That's how my Silver64 is/was.... until I really turned up the fuel. Now I tickle 52lbs. I think the wastegate can't keep up with the fuel I'm using.

Commander can only read 44psi. You have to buy the boost adapt that they supposedly have... I haven't ever see it... I asked for one way back when, but since I never hear from them, I just installed an analog one...

Hey guys,
I ordered up a boost adapter for the Commander. So now I was wondering if my turbo is big enough or not. I can still get well over 1400 deg. without a problem. I'm sure the temp will still keep on climbing but when the Commander starts flashing I let out.I was hoping that the new turbo would keep things cool. You guys that have a Silver 62 how well does the Silver cool your mix.
By the way when this baby lights it the truck goes like crazy!

Well I do have a Smarty Beta 4.3 so I do have fueling... without my Smarty and my built tranny, my truck hardly moves. Feels like a Ford ForkUS.
My Smarty lights it pretty good, slightly slower than stocker.

Hey guys,
I guess I need to add that with the Smarty (8) and Flux 2s I don't get over 1100 degs. Now when I add the PM R37 things get a bit hot. I don't daily drive with the PM on just the Smarty but when I want a bit more I'll Punch up the PM to 3 3 or 4 3, When I add the PM the power is awesome.
Thanks for all the input,
Topper
