alright!, i finally got some tires, nothing too fancy, i got some hankooks 35x12.50x18.
so i started putting on the level kit, i decided to do it the hard way without a spring compressor. it took some manuel prying of the coil but i got it done.
got everything back together when i realized the lug nuts i got with the wheels were a differant thread and my current lug nuts wont work with the new rims. so now im stuck with my truck up on jack stands till tomarrow when i get new lug nuts.

 

Hi I have a 98 Mack with a e7-460 I had the exhaust manifold gasket replaced cuz it was leaking, in the time of replacing the gasket the turbo was bad and replaced with the same model A350 or a035 not sure but def a Warner , and now the problem is I used to get 38 psi very quick and didn't matter what gear I started in it would hit 38psi at 1450 rpm now I get 33 to 34 , but when I shift the turbo does shoot right up to 34. It goes with the rpm and once it hits 1500 it shoots up to max , but sometimes the new turbo will go up to 38 psi very seldom like one or twice a day most stays at 34 and it don't pull like it did and I can't find out what the deal is I checked for leaks replaced hot and cold turbo hoses no leaks now .and still the same No 38 psi I hate this I know what my Mack runs like at 38 keeps up with the internationals we have with the 500 hp in them I gotta get this psi back plz help. sorry for being all over the place here.

Any question plz

Well since you said you replaced the turbo then the problem should be pretty easy to point out. The "old" turbo hit 38 psi, the "new" turbo hits 34 psi, I see no reason to go looking for leaks or wasting money replacing hoses when the problem is right in front of ya, it all changed when the turbo was replaced, therefore everything points at the "new" turbo.

But with that aside, this is the 03-07 CR Cummins forum, this is not the forum for such questions and it is also kinda rude to Hijack someone elses thread with a problem of your own, everyone can make their own thread and ask their questions, I suggest posting up a thread describing your issue in the general diesel related forum where someone can help you further. But I don't want you to think I'm being an ***, those are not my intentions, just saying you will get better results in the correct forum. Just trying to help you out.

 

Thanks bro sorry for intruding

 

driver side is all buttoned up!!

 

still plan on a 4.5" lift later. but the level kit dosnt look bad. i like it.

 

look good!

 

thanks man. the tires dont look that! stuffed in there either. i was worried bout that. i like how it turned out, the ride is alittle better with the bigger tires and no rubing at all. i still have to adjust my speedo. i dont think its off much tho.

 

Well.... Finally got around to removing my cat.....holy shat is it loud. So loud I put it back on.
Looking for a nice muffler. Still want alittle louder.

 

Got my 5" exhaust on tonight. Very happy. Thanks monsters perf. Exhuast. Shipping was spot on and sounds nice. Bolted up nicely and fast.
