I talked to Adam at Powerstrokeshop.com and had him pull me a set of up pipes without any of the normal indentions to clear the head and firewall. I wanted them to flow better.

Injectors-Not done. I held off because the weather is supposed to turn to crap. It's actually lightning right now. And I gotta go back to work.

But the end result is great. Truck runs good, but still has the miss from the injector. But man, with that gutted EBPV, the turbo sounds completely different, in a cool way. And my boost came back from 28 to around 35psi. I figure higher once I get the miss ironed out. But man, what a ton of work. Once the weather chills out, I'll wash it up and show you guys the new cowl hood. It looks bad azz.


awesome cody!

I cant wait to see pictures

William, nobody wants that dam bike. Especially me. If I was forced to ride a street bike, it would be a crotch rocket. Harleys get on my last nerve. Put a cover on it, and forget about it till summer. In the mean while, work harder, make more money, and buy a truck already. Yer killin' me already. LOL

Ark, it's not a matter of money, it's time. I've had all these parts sitting on the shelf for the better part of a year. Since I was off work for the holidays, I decided to make the commitment. I just lucked out and the wife was okay with it. LOL

cody hasn't gotten the nitrous hooked up on Rockee yet, but i do believe that's on the "to do" list as well. i will say the truck runs great(except for the miss) and i now don't want my truck lining up with Rockee.. That was a pretty fun and very successful night
