lol, the way you said that last sentence just made me laugh for some reason....."just let those other guys that run 10's handle the cummins reputation"

 

 

i just found it funny for some reason. im not exactly shure why i just laughed you are right though

 

I didn't say I NEVER will crank the box up a level (in fact I put 'er on 5 for the first time on Thursday to "Smoke" a clown who decided to give me a rough time about my choice of parking spaces
I just keep it on a lower setting and try to be more tolerant the "Mine's bigger than Yours" drivers when there's no point & no $$$ on the line.

BTW, I ride my Harley to work whenever possible to save Diesel fuel.
(I don't & won't own a "car")
I figure if I'm going to try to save dead dinosaurs & dead presidents, I might as well enjoy it.

 

for reference,my 02 with 275`s and a powermax comp box would run a 9.10 eighth time running on 285 tires.it went a 14.30 quarter.it was 4x4 quad cab srw.........bama

 

you shouldn't feel bad about getting passed by a newer Powerstroke.... you're not even using your full DTT to it's capability. That Edge Comp, some Mach 4's and a turbo upgrade will leave that 'stroker' wondering what is going on.... .

 

IMO you should've just order the remote for the TST. It would have made it a TST PM3 and only cost you $100.00. The money you would have saved you could've bought some bigger sticks. For another $50.00 you could have sent your PM1 to TST and they would have made it a TST comp. If I remember right its 180 RWHP on level 9. Just a couple thoughts.

 

I think Apache was right.
Has anyone ever been to an all Volkswagon drag event. About every 3rd or 4th race, one will blow its guts out.
I think that Powerstroke is just waiting to blow give it a little time and you might get to see him on his cell, looking for a tow truck.

 

Injectors will do nothing to change how the VP reacts to a fueling box and certainly won't affect the reliability of the pump either way.......it doesn't matter if the injector is large or small, the pop-off pressures should be the same or similar. Pop-off pressure determines injector pressure. The additional fueling the box provides comes from some increased advance and added fueling duration.

FWIW, a set of Mach 4's would net a HUGE power gain over swapping out the TST for the Comp.

 

I called TST about getting box upgraded, but it was not able. Installed Comp last night, and it is running like a freight train. Smokin like a chimney, and it pulls hard when you drop the loud pedal. What a difference. Has anyone dyno'ed a combo like mine? Just wonderin what type of torque she is laying down now? Waiting to load up a big trailer and let 'er have at it. Ought to be fun!

 

A Comp and RV275's is a popular combo.......should net you 350-375 RWHP and 750-800 ft/bs easily with the Comp on kill......maybe a tad more if evrything is just right. You will probably find that you will have to turn the Comp down some when towing with the stock turbo.
