New Parallel Turbo Project
 
I have had parts laying around for a week or two and I finaly found time to start this project after lunch today. Just got done with the headers about 2 hours ago and thought I would post a couple pics.

Yes, my welding looks horrible. I have way to big of wire for my new welder and I never could get it set to run smooth with that wire.:bang I have got to do some grinding and cleaning up on the headers but they will work for the fair pulls next week.:thumbsup

These turbos together are good for 900+ but there are other hurdles that have to be jumped to reach that point.

i cant wait to see a burnout or some donuts. (hint, hint). very nice!:U:

DppPower 07-18-2009 11:53 AM

Well it just went for a a couple short test runs behind the shop. All I have to run it on is a strip that is about 500-600 ft long.

Just stomping it from a dead stop they are laggy (fully expected) but they will start to lite about halfway thru the strip and when they do you best hold on because the boost jumps quick:U: Of course it has not been drove any at all and has only ran a total of 20-25 minutes in the shop so there is still air in the HPOS and fuel system. The bad part is when they do start to lite good I have to let out and slow down again.

Boost numbers are around 25-30psi when I have to let out.

So from my few short runs I have made I am very pleased with the results so far.

I am getting ready to head out and pick some tires up so I can hook it to the sled tonight and see what happens.

Ibleedblue 07-18-2009 08:32 PM

good luck with your pull. hope you take some video.

Superstroker10 07-19-2009 02:50 PM

f n a cant wait to see some vids

DppPower 07-22-2009 06:36 PM

UPDATE after Pulls....

Saturday night was not the best night for myself or my buddy Ross who drove a little over 3 hours to get here. The sled broke down 3-4 times and it was 1:30 in the morning before we got to pull and I was dead tired by that time and almost went home early.

The first puller in the class appeared to have smoked his clutch trying to move the sled and he got no where. Ross was the second puller and I am not sure how far he pulled but it was around 95 feet and all he could do was spin. Then from the third puller on they all pulled 200+ ft. So I think they did not have the sled set right for the first puller and second puller (Ross) and they both got screwed.

Now when I got up there I guess I was tired or just plain dumb as I forgot to pull the transfer into 4wd low.

So I brake boosted to about 10psi and when I let off the brakes and started to move I finally realized what I had done. So I let out of the fuel to stop and get a re-start in 4wd. Well when I let off the fuel the truck died and would not start back.:madd:

So I got pulled off the track back to the pits with my tail tucked between my legs. Once I got back in the pit the truck fired up again but it was too late to try and pull again so I loaded up and went home.

Even though things did not go well I guees it was not that bad of a night since nothing broke or blew up.

I just feel bad because there were several people that came up to me and said they hung around that late just to see my truck pull and Ross drove all that way really for nothing now. It is to bad I had a brain fart and disapointed everyone.

Guess I will be looking for a pull to try again next weekend.

Anyways, I promised videos so here is a real short one.:D

Been tore down for a couple weeks now waiting on a few more parts. They should be here tomorrow and I am hoping to have time to get it back together so we can pull it down by Arkansas this coming weekend.

It will be mounted properly and painted of course and I will be doing away with the square hole around the exhaust tip and make it a nice round hole with edging on it for a nice clean look.
