What's Next ? (performance questions)
 
So i've got almost all the info on my truck.

And i just fixed my fuel pressure gauge to find out i'm running about 19 PSI idle and 12ish WOT. And i finally had the nerve to look up while WOT and take a gander at my EGT's which was 1150' or so,

Have Air filter, S300 turbo, 4" " Straight " exhaust. and full gauges BD boost fooler, and a Fass 95(or 150) fuel pump

I think my fix on the fuel pressure gauge made it run quite a bit better, i think it's not sucking any air into the line when it's haulin butt. it seems to pull a little better. But the mind is a powerful thing.

So where's my next mod ? Injectors ? Programmer ? Water/Meth ?

I don't do any thing but tow a 2500 LBS boat, and drive to work every day,

Seems to be a frequent question from me, but i just don't want to waste my money on something i won't be happy with !

injectors are good I would go in the 95-110 range over stock. what size 300?

You need a Performance Box or Programmer.

Edge Comp
Edge Juice with Attitude

Injectors or fueling box. I'd go for both:w2: Then you will have to look at tranny upgrades

I was thinkin fuel box too,

I think the previous owner did a bunch of trans work to it, it's got firm shifts when your on it or towing, but nice and smooth around town, + a mag-hytec 40 million quart pan

I don't know how to tell sizes, only thing i know is " S300g7 " or S7, sound abut right ?? i'll look into it after it's cooled down a little more.

I want to go with smarty over an edge, but i don't know, i can get them both for abut 650'.

But i need something that will have decent manners, i love the fact that smarty has " half power " and " Fuel saver " and the high idle feature

I'm lost, if only some one had one of them used.... WTB section here i come !

Ohh and !! What are ya'lls opinion on the BD steering brace for the 01's ? Mine drives pretty nice as is, would it really make that much of a difference ?

the edge juice with attitude is adjustable as well and its on the fly, smarty would be good as well, tst powermax 3 wouldnt be a bad choice either and its a little cheaper. actually if thats something your interested in, let me know, i may be able to get you a used one.

I haven't heard much on the TST stuff, But i like the on the fly adjust mode.

How does it it hook up ?

That's what i like about the smarty the most, easy to remove, and make the truck back to stock with no trace,

Smarty only adds around 60hp to VP44 trucks. If you get a Smarty make sure you pay MAP price or you will not have a warranty. With New Ball Joints, lukeslink on the trac bar and the steering stabalizer my truck has tight steering.

Tweaker727 04-07-2009 05:51 PM

Why does it hint at the 150 HP and 300 Ft. Lbs of torque on smartys website ?

I want something that will help mileage when i need it to, and rip the doors off the car next to me when i have to,
