Down pipe, got lucky and didnt have to fab up a flange because the stock one was perfect!

 

[snowboardonsnow]

Almost flat.

Got tired of holding it so I made my own jig. . Really warped at the ends. Maybe 1/16 of a inch.

I need to finish the intake and exhuast, add Pyro and boost gauge them I am done!

The progress is sweet, but your youtube video is marked private, so we can't watch it

 

[snowboardonsnow]

fixed, nothing special just the sweet sound of spoolage.

Love the "Automatic Flange Planer"

 

[snowboardonsnow]

Thanks guys.
Dono on the hp changes I don't have a dyno but its awesome! So responsive now.

here is a video checking the boost. 1/2 turn on the fuel screw. No egt gauge yet so that's all till the pyro comes in.
Steepest Hill nearby looks like 10 psi at 2k topping at around 12psi

Can't wait to see it in action this weekend!

 

[gregnash]

Looks awesome! You going to dash mount the gauges or go with an A-Pillar pod?

 

[StevoJonesFJ60]

Any updates?

Yah, DDing her ever since, waiting and saving so I can go back through her and fix everything I dont like. Probably next year. Cracked the frame as I mentioned to yah, let people know really strengthen your frame up if you run your spring out there.

All I gotta say is THANK GOD FOR THAT TURBO! We moved up a steep hill but she holds the twisty corners and speed limit in 3rd and usually under 10psi cruise at speeds is around 5psi.
I got to say, its really nice having the piece of mind of these rigs. They rarely break and are so easy to fix. You can replace the brakes in under 5 minutes!

 

[snowboardonsnow]

Omg, forgot some of the s*** I did, that belt sander haha, got the job done. I set that up and walked away.

I agree, we have gotten our use out a her that's for sure. Currently its our only rig. The kids love it, Cash still thinks every truck is a diesel truck.
