Hey there just wanted to see what you all think on this, i have a 1996 crew cab 7.3, i have 6 pisiton chip cold air intake, turbo from beans, just put injecters and oil hpop in her from a 2000 superduty, it has woken this old girl up!! it only has 98,000 on it but acted dead it had sat a lot!! i have an ats inner cooler in shop ready 2 put on and a set of 4 in stacks, 6 in lift and 37. i guess i wanna see what do you do next??? i have also had the tranny went threw and toughend up, with the lift comes a 1 ton front end. any suggestions on what you would do or change??? thanks

 

What did you do with your old injectors? I might need one/some - waiting for test to know for sure...

 

Did you have the chip burned for the split shot injectors? If not it won't run the best.
I would go fo a set of bigger injectors as the next mod.
Do you have gauges? You will need them.
Which turbo did you get from beans?

 

Welcome to FTE!

Next mod would definitely be getting some bigger single shot injectors and getting rid of those split shots that you put in your truck. Then get your chip reburned for the bigger injectors and viola!! you should be able to be in the 380hp range if you get ya some stage 2's. Right now I'd bet your in the 300hp range..

Edit: X2 on guages.. Do you have them? Boost, EGT, and Trans Temp?

 

hey travis, i got on a dyno when i eas in texas, but the guy wasnt too keen on diesels so he ran it mostly for fun. any way, he figured my truck to have about 340hp and 600ft lbs tq. does this sound about right? sorry about the vid, he held my phone sideways.

Sounds about right George for stage 1's with no IC and stock fuel system. I think with electric fuel and IC you'd be around 350hp or so. Mine did 352hp/731tq w/ stage 1's, IC, and elect fuel.

 

a guy that bought some goodies off my 97 says he has an all alum. IC with pipes (no spider) for $100. i told him to go get it. iam waiting for him to show up. no, i didnt pay for it up front.

 

Glad you didn't pay up front!! Thats a good deal on the IC if you get it though.

 

... and all i need to do is get rid of the 97 body hogging up my driveway, the swap is done except for the stacks.

 

yeah i just sent my chip back in 2 have it up dated, i put the dominater on it is a nice set up wanted bigger but thats all my pockets would let me spend! lol

 

hey travis, thanks!! i have all my gauges pro, bost, trany temp, i was going 2 put beans stage 1 in but being laid off in all, the supperduty inj was laying there i said what the hell, i want stage 2 but scared of my trany! is the 17* a good swap?? i have a powerstroke s etting i wanna build, so we will be talking a lot! lol i wanna go down to beans in oct, they are saying about 340 or a little more and in the 600 650, but i wanna dyno it my self down there

 

17* is a good upgrade, if you are going bigger than ones for sticks I'd get ahold of Joey at terminator engineering, he'll modify it for you for a VERY reasonable charge. That's what travis has along with me and lots of others...
