Hi all! It's good to be here...
Well Here are some pictures of my truck, a 1989 Super Duty 7.3, ZF 5 speed, with 5:13 rear end gears. I bought this truck as a rust bucket, with 120,000 miles on it. I did all the work my self but for the rebuild on the transmission. I set it up to haul my fifth wheel toy hauler. My former toy hauler camper was 35' long and loaded weighed about 11500 pounds. I bought a new 5th wheel toy hauler in November. Its a 38' long Coachman Adrenaline Toy Hauler triple axle camper. The new camper weighs 12200 pounds empty, loaded I'm guessing it will be about 15000 to 16000 pounds. My wife and I both ride, I have a 2000 Hayabusa, a 2008 B-King and my wife has a 2000 Bandit 1200S.
So thats how I came to finding this place. I needed to find power for my 7.3 IDI non turbo truck. I ended up buying an ATS turbo system called the Aurora 2000 for my truck. I will soon be putting it on my truck when I take it out of storage. I put so much work into my truck I put it away for the winter to keep the New York salt off it.
I'm here to learn and make some new friends along the way. I think Im going to be happy here. By the way my name is Jay.

Thanks guys.... an yes you can get the weight up there with two cycles a 5500 watt generator and two 35gal fuel tanks one for the generator and one a fuel station for the cycles. Also 200 gal of fresh water.... I will look for the link to my on line picture page of the camper and post it up in here.

I have been asked that before about an intercooler, I have not looked into that yet but I know the colder air will help a bunch... Right now Im a little light in the wallet after buying the ATS system and the new camper.... Im sure it will be in the future and will help keep the EGT down
