Truck under-go's turbo relocation surgery
#72
Very nice, I didn't think you could do that. I thoght that the sts turbos would not work in the front mount location. I thought you would have issues. No compressor surge or any think like that? Great info, its good to know I still have the option of going front mount if I want to.

do you have any before dyno times? looks like you have track times. it has always been my theory that a rear mount will have good mid range but be slow to spool and drop off quicker in the upper rpms. i would like to know how the top end is. mph at the track will tell us if you picked anything up or before and after dyno numbers if you have them.
keep up the good work!

I don't believe your truck is running that good. You should probably make a trip up here to Colorado and prove me wrong, hehe!..J/K If you make it up here I'll even let you tune on my truck free of charge, I might even throw in somthing shinny to put on your truck.

) should get some new numbers, they will suck compared to my best in my sig, cuz this track it 4800' and those numbers were in Phoenix at 1200'. Parish, I haven't been on a dyno for a long time and many mods ago, closest dyno to me here in WY is 2 1/2 hours away, but I did go to my local track a few weeks ago and bested a 14.56 at 99mph, but couldn't get it to build any boost on the line (made for shitty 2.40-.50 60' times). It was hot and DA was over 9000'
and the exhaust leaks weren't helping. I think I won't have any problems brake stalling to boost now. And it supposed to be cool tomorrow ( low 80's
)blue 01, I wish I was out there, I would be at Woodburn for that again, it was fun, but I'm not going to make it out to OR this summer, too much to do here, and I'm going to AZ as soon as I can get my dads truck back running.
