His 300 with 18 PSI of boost (now I think he's limiting it to 10) made 300 HP and 575 Ft. Lbs. at the rear wheels at about 3500 RPM. So I will guess that he's probably at about 260/500 at 10 PSI.
Yep, how s bout it t36 , pry yourself away from that powerstroke and tell more about that megasquirt your running. Is it best to use it piggyback or could you start from scratch and would it control an e40d? I was thinking about adding a boost timing retard when I get my wb setup and start turning up the boost but maybe I'm going down the wrong road here. By the way I just picked up a 97 pwstr dump yesterday.
Are you running this without any kind of tunes? I thought for sure this would blow the top out of a piston for sure. I'm going to have to read back and see what's all been done to yours bricklayer.
Right now all I have is the fmu and I'm not even sure what it is calibrated at. I also rigged a pressure switch to the coolant sensor to try and make sure that the injecter pulse is open as long as possible and right now just running a single wire o2 sensor to my a/f ratio gauge so the engine is always running in open loop. The gauge stays on the rich side even when the turbo spools up so I assume it's maintaining a 14 to 1 ratio even though a 11 to1 would be better under full petal I have to wait to get a wide band setup to tune in to that.Checked plugs, they looked OK.
probly no more till next winter, pretty happy with it for now. I am curious to see how it runs in hot weather. Wonder if anybody else has tried this on their truck yet?
hello, taking a minute out of the busy season to say hi. did you have any takers on your truck turb 300? checked out your pics, nice. my truck has been running well i am glad i did it. its hard not to womp on it going up the mountain though. fuel $ are sad. this winter i am going to get more fuel pressure one way or another because it does starve if you stay on it too long at a high speed. the potential for more power is there though . well ,later , somebody talk.
awwwww damn now i REALLY wanna turbo my 300! maybe i will start building a parts pile for the project so is there any parts lists and...well instructions to get it done the best so i dont screw anything up i got the 95 300I6 with 5 speed 4x4...this thread is pretty much all over the place and hard to follow haha but this is a kick ass idea

Hey yall hows it goin?i have a 1992 F-150 300 I6 E4OD that i'm gettin ready to put a turbo on.i have a 95 GM borg warner turbo i'm goin to run a "custem long pipe" setup to reduce high heat so there will be no need for a intercooler.i was goin to see if i could some pro tips from yall that have been doin it for a good couple years of what i need to get from start to finish.
go for it. i am nothing but pleased with my setup even with the rather primitive boost referenced fuel pressure regulator to give it more fuel. the hardest part of the project was fabbing the exhaust manifold out of 2"" weld els and trying to allow for thermal expansion. also, attemping to figure the right diameter pipe sizes had me unsure a few times. the only mistake i made was making the oil return line only 3/8". keep it 5/8 or3/4 unless you enjoy dropping your oil pan multiple times. a good book is Corky Bells Maximum Boost , it has invaluable info on designing a custom setup
