Really? wow.. id be surprised if my dads 088 breaks 5lbs lol but ya, afaik the same 60-1 wheel can be used. Im sure there are other upgrades for it as well.

 

I can get 12 lbs on pump diesel. More then 15 psi on wmo blend, but I have let off the go pedal before my pistons melt

 

What differences did you notice when you intercooled your truck? Iv been looking into intercooling my truck, obviously I can expect lower egt's, but what about power difference? Did you use a 7.3 or 6.0 cac? Ill be going to some junkyards soon, hopefully to find a good intercooler from a SD

 

Mine should be here tomorrow

I'm running 7.3l SD cooler and I love it. They shoulda came stock on turbo idi's

 

oh don't put it like that man.now i know when i add one,im gunna regret not doing it sooner lol.it's that drastic?

 

Big difference. Drop in egts alone is enough of a reason for me. Inlet of IC is a bit warm but the outlet feels cold to the touch so your getting all that nice cold compressed air, that dropped my smoke level down considerably too. I also have my IP maxed out. Sure it helped my MPG but I can't keep my foot out of it

Edit: and it only costs about 150$ for the intercooler!

 

IC is totally worth it... Big bang for buck.

60-1 wheel is good for a little extra flow over the stocker, but still limits you as far as efficiency goes... If you are going to stay around the typical sub-15psi ranges, it will do good, and be better than stock, but if you want to bump the boost up some, its probably not the best upgrade...

 

I found an intercooler today in a jy for 100 bucks, its out of a 02 7.3. Would this suit me fine or should I try to find 6.0 cooler? Is any 1 better than the other

 

the 7.3L cooler will suit you just fine!

 

Im starting to seriously wonder what i have going on with my setup. People talking about high egts and smoke at 10-15psi... where as mine doesnt even smoke past 1 and only hazes until 3-5, my little stock pump is maxxed. Ill have a new toy to try out soon enough and find out what is going on

 

Is this an ATS 093 Turbo & is this item still available? Is this complete & what is the cost shipping to Amado AZ 85645

 

got mine coming.god dang you guys!
i went with the 31X12X3 Universal CXRacing found on ebay.lots of guys reporting good results with these on oil burners.
sprung for the extra and got the "black" one in this size.which means its powder coated according to their site.

what's been holding me back,is i don't have a way to run the pipes,and i hate the idea of someone working under my hood.but what ya gunna do lol.can't just keep putting it off.
now iv got to find an intake hat for it to work.that sounds like it'll be fun.oh joy.

let us know how them universal pipes are working out for ya.

 

Lemme know how it works. I've had a 7.3 PSD cooler sitting on the bench since July. No time to put 'er in...

 

They're not going to work out. I would have been better off buying only the cooler then buying then measuring and ordering the pipes separately.
