  • Decided to disconnect my Wastegate and see how she does. Got little more boost and little more power. Would be nice to upgrade the Wastegate before doing a tune I think, what you guys think?

    Great video, I think the reason for no performance gain in the last 2 gears is the RPM's start off low and it lugs at those low RPM where as the other test you are running the RPM's to the red line.

    You need a "boost fooler", it manipulates the MAP sensor reading to keep the engine from defeuling at certain boost levels, that may not be the issue with your times being slower, but it will definitely help.

      @@FixItNick most of the time there used with a tuner because when the boost goes up, it sets a check engine code, then causes defeuling, you may not need it just depending on what you do with the truck, but its something to think about.

      Josh, I have a 97 7.3l stock and I tow across the country twice a year with a trailer that is about 8 to 9,000lbs and I saw a video last year that it said that with a simple adjustment you can get more boost quicker and keep the boost without hurting the engine or turbo as long as you don't over adjust it..
      I'm handicapped and it said that it Greatly improved MPG and Especially if you are Towing... Please let me know if you know what that adjustment is and post it and send me the link, or just message me back to let me know what the adjustments are so i can find someone to help me get more MPG as I'm on a very low fixed income... Thanks for any help you can give.

      Yes I have riffraffs boost fooler for map sensor. And I can boost to 33.5 psi on stock wheel on e99. I don't push it that hard cuz I want turbo to last longer. Lol along with a hydra. Php canned tunes. Very happy compared to Ts-6. I had for 7yrs. With an automatic. Didn't hurt it. Hydra is much more trans friendly.

  • @NoHalfAss
    @NoHalfAss 5 лет назад +4

    I would imagine the reason you didn’t see a difference in 5th and 6th gear is because of how much it takes (high RPMs) to get our 7.3 turbos to really spool up. They really don’t kick in much until the RPMs get pretty high and when you’re cruising in 5th or 6th gear and then get on it the RPMs don’t shoot up as fast like they do in lower gears. Btw bro I had a hole in my intercooler pipe and just replaced it and went from 21 to 24psi. But like I said the RPMs have to be really high to see those numbers.

    • @NoHalfAss

    @davidwood8392 4 месяца назад

    Hey Nick, you've got to use identical shift points on all testing you do for accurate data. For example always start your test in "x" gear @ "y" rpm and make your shifts @ 3000 rpm.
    That will give you a better apples to apples comparison than a random shift point.
    I only say this because it seems that you are.

  • @RedHaloManiac95
    @RedHaloManiac95 5 лет назад

    You didn't improve your time because you didn't increase the amount of fuel in the cylinder. What this tells us is at 18psi you were pretty much burning all the fuel. On the wastegate thing, if you aren't making over 25psi stock then there's no reason to change it when you could just leave it unplugged. You DO NOT want to boost over 25psi on the stock turbo or you will start shortening the life of the turbo dramatically. Paying money for a shiny new wastegate if the truck won't boost over 25psi is almost a waste of money unless you want peace of mind knowing you won't go over 25psi. Great video as always Nick, keep em coming and I'll stay tuned.

      @Matt Caldwell this makes no sense. It can burn rich in the sense that it’s not fully combusting all of the fuel and expelling black smoke. It’s not the same running rich as a gasoline.

      @Matt Caldwell and also saying that hearing will impact acceleration far more than anything else is also useless. Everyone knows taller gear accelerate faster but you completely hose your top end. What use is that? So fueling is much better than changing your gearing. Again you added irrelevant information.

    • @RedHaloManiac95

    That line you removed from waste gate, does it originate at a turbo control valve? I understand on some setups a person can obtain different (TCV's = turbo control valve) in fact a person can manufacture their own TCV and make it adjustable. After you upgrade to better waste gate it would be great to see a build and install of a self made TCV. Really enjoy your videos. I own a 1999 E F-350 also and have some of the same mods you are doing. Mathew is doing great work also.

Have a 4x4 auto trans. put a much larger trans cooler up front , runs nice a cool , big difference. then did the riff raff oil and cooler lines which you just saw done on this site. throw in that bigger air filter and you should have a very reliable and smooth running unit. Also have 5 inch exhaust system . Sounds good runs cool.
