I tried the 1.5's/tst/catcher for about a week on the stock turbo, EGT's were out of control

of course, thats another six grand down the road....

I don't think RJ has his to the "limit" yet...I've been WAAAAYYYY over the limit many times, he's not even close!!

His chargers spool fast enought to burn those 315's BIG TIME, and still cool EXCEPTIONALLY well at 627hp (right??)...with a Cam, and a little headwork, they could handle 700 EASILY!!

If you want a little more cooling, and still have good spool on an Auto truck, go with a B2/S400 below that Super B, and have at it! I still think that would be a WICKED setup! A stick truck can drive around the lag of a 62mm charger on top, but it will be a FUN ride once those chargers go to working

BTW Blackdiesel02, how do you plan on getting the fuel for 700hp on that HO?? From what I understand, it hasn't been done yet, and no one's really come that close! 650+ seems to be SO territory so far!

I am pretty happy with the Mach 1's, but the price over RV 275's my tip it differently for you. I plan to stay with them, where you are just traveling through. So far it is a pretty good combonation with the TST as I can turn the heat up or down.

Ya, it would be manageable, but you would have to watch it.

hrvp, mach 4's, tstpm3 comp, water meth, and phat shaft 62/b2s400 twins
Doug at PDW said that would put me at 650-700. so we'll see. (and of course im shooting for 700

)

Well i ordered some jammer stage 1 50 hp injectors for $300 from city diesel today. the guy said i should get the best mileage increase with these over 275s. i hope he is right. As soon as that guy in the classifieds calls me i will buy his SMARTY, Im getting restless though. dieselfan
