It doesn't smoke as much as I thought it would. Mine will do way more than that with a stock fast lighting turbo.

 

The "applied" turbo is very very similar to the AFE blade runner.

 

Yes they are, the engineers from AFE left and decide to come up with a new turbo that they could call there's because AFE wouldn't let them engineer the way they wanted to to increase "performance" .
Well there idea of more performance out of. 59/"80"/ from a t3 manifold has a lot of people stunned I guess, like I said and will keep saying. I really wish I would have done my homework on turbos before I bought this one, this one ain't bad. But there is a lot better out there, like Compounds"😋😋

 

so im going to buy some 7x0.009 SAC 100 horse sticks. think this will be a good setup?
Lower my EGT's a little?

 

I run 7x0.010's on my hx and have no issues with towing light on 5x5. You should have no issues with 100's. But depending on your future power goals I would make sure that's where you want to be at.

 

Ghostman, we've got a pretty similar setup, but I'm throwing on a boost fooler and elbow, (since I haven't been able to un-**** this 'no bus' error i've got yet) 100hp sticks, and stock turbo. You experience any scenarios where your EGT's climbed up over 1400? Is it worth my time putting in an EGT gauge?

 

Highest I have ever seen is 1200. But I have my edge set to defuel at 1250 so I don't have to really worry about it.

 

If you don't put in an EGT gauge, how are you going to know? Guessing isn't going to tell you and it's to late if it burns out your turbo or exhaust valves, pistons.

Something I don't understand is why people think adding more fuel will lower EGT. More air should lower EGT because you get more complete burn in the cylinder where it can do work. Try clamping the hose from the elbow with a pair of vice grips and see what happens before you buy the elbow. Mine runs, with stock turbo, and elbow all the way closed, to about 28 max boost.

 

That's interesting that you can only hit 28 psi. Whats the altitude where you are at? I can hit 35 if I bury it.

 

if you have a big turbo and not enough fuel to spool it, my understanding your EGT'S will fly through the roof, ( Like me) but i just pulled the trigger on the new Qaudzilla ADR 180HP chip.
i havent been able to test it with any pass's yet though. but on straight strech 0-60 runs
