Each truck is different. Mine maxes at 30psi, as my tuning will prove it. Others max at 28, some at 33. Some stock turbos wont make more than 500-520hp. While others support 570-595hp. This has been proven.
i have had mine max out a 35+psi and 25psi, yes tuning has alot to do with how much boost can be made. 32 is the most u want. and yes each truck is different because alot of the trucks people compare and read about online are at different elevations, locations and dynos. And dynos are just a tuning tool really, they all dont read the same. show me a stock turbo lb7 truck that makes 595 hp and has the low 12 pass to prove it :pca1: |
I have a 2001 duramax and i'm wanting to close the wastegate some. As of right now it sounds like it's wide open and when i get on it and it takes off it sounds just like a bunch of wind rushing by. I know i can build up plenty of boost because i run a Quadzilla Stealth 2 Race edition programmer on it at a 165 hp stage. It runs great and actually improves my fuel economy when i drive it right of course. Any suggestions on the wastegate? I would like for it to be a little quieter so i could actually hear my turbo. :w2:
