No Top End

Put In stage 2 injectors with terminator dual hpop. New ICP sensor was just installed as well. Have incredible power off the line but once I reach 2700 rpm the truck governs and won't go any faster. It doesn't matter what gear or program I have it in. I'm going to get it logged and give it to Jody from dp tuner but wanted some crazy ideas until I get a chance. Anything helps

Do you have a plan?

Jody mentioned depending on the pressures he can adjust the tune or may have to yank the injectors. I replaced my cam sensor 5 yrs ago but wasn't sure how long they last. Do I have a plan? ...kinda, but would like some possible input to get a better plan

What kind of boost do you have? Do you have a boost fooler? If not the PCM will start defueling when the boost get above 22psi I believe. With dual HPOP's you shouldn't have any oil problems.
What injectors do you have. I take it you have full gauge set ups?

You need to be looking at Pulse Width, ICP and IPR Duty Cycle while driving. That can tell you a great deal.

Somebody asked if there is a boost fooler. Yes , pre stage 2 I was pulling incredible boost. Yes I have a quad pod with gauges. I had the truck live tuned as we'll pre stage 2. I messed it up going bigger. I guess I'll have to wait until the numbers are in

This one. Do you have a scan tool/gauge?


Stage II sticks are frequently IH AC 160/100s, but not always. What have you got? If they are the Stage IIs I listed, why did you got to such a monster HPOP?

I about died when I read that one. I think it's best I go pee before I log in and read your subsequent posts. Two years later, I'm still putting the finishing touches on Stinky to accept the Stage IIs (IH AC 160/100).

Owen, what kind of truck do you have? My 550 has a speed limiter that kicks in at 3200 RPMs @ 82 MPH. Was your truck a commercial vehicle?

Replying to a couple posts, I don't have a scan tool but will hopefully be stopping in with a guy who does. I was throwing 1211 codes every time I got on it and Jody from dp strongly recommended to put on the hpop for the stage 2's. The other reply is it is a regular f 250. I don't think it has what ur asking because before these new full force sticks If I wanted I could pull 38 lbs boost, bury my egt gauge and take the RPMS up over 3100 where they are holding out at 2700

I can tell you what is happening - but you need a scan tool to see it for yourself.


AC 160/100s? New? Reman?

Did you put in a new IPR? If not, that mitt b e the problem. Scan gauge would tell for sure. How high are your EGT's at 2700 rpm's? Dual pumps are great but I wouldn't think you need them for stage two's. I was going to run the 205/100 non hybrid and was told for full all out power I should have duals also. I think that's were Stewart is also. It slowed me down on my purchase, another $2500 plus. I really don't want full out power for racing, but do want the torq for towing. I mitt just run my T500 and see.
