DV's
 
im thinkin about gettin some dv's for my truck. would 024's be alright with my 5x12's?
are they a good option or is there better out there for a truck that frequently tows (broke down chevy's n stuck fords...):w2:
eventually i'd like to end up with a good solid 400 hp truck

oops i meant to put this in the bombs section. sorry mods, feel free to move it where it belongs

a good upgrade would be a set of 181's, altho your current dv's will do fine for your goals. IMO for 400hp there is no need to go any bigger

yea i agree, 024's are big, i currently run 191's and like them just fine. you can read my sig and compare and contrast to your truck. if i could figure out how to change my sig. lol

A 191 flows more than a 024, they are also 8mm vs 7mm.

there's nothing wrong with them, i was just lookin to get a little more power out of the truck. i wasnt sure if maybe they were limiting me in any way. i'm not looking for smoke, actually if i could make it smoke less i'd be happy

I have the DDP 042s, that say 024 on them, but they're 8mm. Where do they fit in the mix?

blazier18 12-21-2010 08:39 PM

blazier18 12-21-2010 08:55 PM

he351vgt!!! lol

cummins95 12-21-2010 09:00 PM

i hate electronics, so the less i have to deal with them the better haha, even simple wiring frustrates me

94 12valve 12-21-2010 09:03 PM

blazier18 ... please clear out your PM box

IMO swap turbos first then worry about your DV's

cummins95 12-22-2010 05:02 AM

i hate them too but it would be worth it plus the exhaust brake and quick spool plus its 200 dollars and i can hardly wire up trailer lights

cummins95 12-22-2010 04:10 PM

a he351vgt for 200 bucks? hmmmm :humm:

blazier18 12-22-2010 04:12 PM

yeah i know its ebay but take a look! he351 lemme know wat u think cuz i been ponderin on it

cummins95 12-22-2010 04:52 PM

hmm i might consider that. seems like it'd be a good towing turbo cuz of the quick spool n exhaust braking. as long as it can keep up with the fuel i might just do that

blazier18 12-22-2010 07:40 PM

im gonna get one and my next injectors are 5x14's i think itll keep up alot better then my hx35 but if u get one before me let me know how it does then that will make my mind if i get one or not:chess:

cummins95 12-22-2010 08:48 PM

so i get to be the guinea pig haha

blazier18 12-22-2010 11:55 PM

ha ha im always it down here and so far so good
