im assuming the f350 weighs more than the dodge 2500 did so im thinking that might be a contributing factor. wont go with water/meth had it and the entire system froze when were in canada last winter and some days get to -10 as a high in the winter so water/meth is out

 

No, my truck gets that hot too. It's the poor cooling design of these blocks..

Bigger turbo. Im going with the 6.7 turbo this winter.

 

oh believe me i have a big enough turbo

 

do you have aftermarket manifold they help out some, or even intake horn or intercooler

 

have you had any head work done? might wanna consider it. i've heard the heads on these trucks are pretty restrictive. or maybe a milder fuel plate like an 8 or somethin. also your engine is studded so you could prolly bump the timing more. just some suggestions. nice truck tho

 

the cooling design wont affect exaust temps any

 

Get some better sticks than the II junk 370's

Cool deal mike

 

i dont think the ports are that bad it just the intake manifold part of the head restricting air to the back cylinders, but p&p head would deff help

 

mike how do you plan on controlling the vgt? drive pressure?

 

Theres a whole write up on DTR and CompD
