Delays, delays....looks like possibly tomorrow now

Interesting... what boost level were you running? I've decided to use a 3lb. spring instead of the standard 5lb. and use the boost controller's two settings for a "medium", and "high". I know I'll use 5lbs. for the medium level, but trying to decide between 7 and 8lbs for the high setting. Do you think 8lbs would be too much for the higher cr LQ9? I know there are several who are running 10+ on stock 5.3's, but I haven't seen any info on what an LQ9 will put up with.

 

I would like to know, STS...Hmmmm..... Tax return. decisions decisions.

 

You know you want too....

 

Depends on the tune, I feel that the LQ4 can handle 15psi if carefully tuned, the LQ9 could handle 2 pounds less.....

 

i think you will be disappointed as it probably wont load as well as it does on the street and not make full boost on the dyno. Lets hope thats not the case and good luck!!

 

I am waiting for this slacker that I know to upgrade his turbo

 

I am going to say 400hp, I think you are going to need more boost to run the numbers you want. But like stated above it depends on the tune. Some dyno's are able to load the turbo better than others. The dynojets are not able to load the turbo as well as the street. That is what I have heard. I was told that the dyno pack will load the turbo better. But that is just what I was told, I don't know for shure. 2 cents for you!

 

Im going to say high 300's. becasue its an STS kit and they say those things dont work anyways

 

I'll guess 400-425 at least. My 6.0 made 385hp/427tq at only 5300rpm with no meth on a dynojet. I've got a cam but other than that its a stock motor. Oh, that was only on 5psi too.

 

Well... Were waiting... J/K
