    Default Hahahahaha need more fuel

    Did a slight test today...

    94 ex cab shortbed, 3.73’s, 33’s, 4” lift, 5900 lbs, 4l80e, top mount Dt466 intercooled, he351cw with 67/76mm 10 blade upgraded exhuast, (Bored to 1” waste hole), holley pump at 15 psi, 3/8 line all the way, Road draft tube, homemade 3/8 inleat at IP, head studs and girdle, 3.5” down to 4” straight, -1.94 offset, and a BD chip.

    0-60 run no boosted launch just idle then floor it, shifts on its own about 3500rpm

    Fuel peaks at 68mm
    Boost peaks at 10
    Egts about 760
    IAT was like 130
    Ambient air was maybe 75*
    I didnt have a chance to get actual time or distance

    Coming from modded 12 valves, 6.0’s, and some good running turbo 6.2’s, this truck flies for only 9-10 psi. Im kinda new to the 6.5 electronics, do these numbers seem right? It smokes for 2-3 sexonds then completely clears up, def need more fuel. Would be awesome to have 100+mm in this truck as good as it runs now. That was cheaper to get to.

    Sucks these things were cursed with the optic sensor and crap programming. Cheap, easy to work on and build, simple design, love rpm, cheap, great torque for such low hp, and cheap.

    Glad things are working.

    The 6.5 will live pretty well....just keep the boost reasonable (15 psi or under)
    Keep the EGT 1000 F at the ports MAX and your golden...
