i like that one
. i would love to be out tuning the thing but my intercooler pump is leaking so i unpluged it and my meth pump is geting some upgrades so it really isn't ready. i have 10psi springs in the wg's and with no intercooler or meth i dont think i can run 10psi safely. i should have both of these things fixed by next weekend and will hopefully have some better performace date to share. once the driveline starts jumping around under the hood i may have some problems to share too. i am not sure if i designed enough flexability into the charge pipes, this motor really moves around. does anyone make motor mounts out of somethings firmer like "poly" whatever that stuff is?
i am really happy nothing melted on the test drive, it was 90deg last night and i was sitting at lights and in parking lots with it running for awhile and it didn't even have any funny smells coming from it (other than last years race fuel
)
the exhaust is prety loud, it is really deep and mean sounding with some resonance in the cab. i put a couple of 45deg dumps on the end of the mufflers and that helped a little. i was one 90deg elbow short of geting the pipes out the side of the truck, i will have to do that, it's a little too loud for me.
first project today is to clean the garage, it is destroyed. no scrach that, first is to take some finished pics and post them up and then clean the garage. suppose to be a nice cool 100deg out today.

I was gonna say to check the BOV's if you are getting a funny barking noise on decel but, it sounds like you have already heard them working.
I have heard that barking noise on my Dad's D-Max but, it doesn't happen all the time for whatever reason.
CONGRATS!!!!!

i am using those titan sce copper head gaskets, no leakage yet. the hose on the down pipe fitting for crank case evac hasn't melted yet either and i was out driving for awhile today in 100deg weather. kyle will have that vid up soon i think. you should be able to hear the funny noises. you can hear the bov's prety clearly. this is something else.
