You were my inspiration to go the turbo route this time. Can't wait to see what yours can do with the boost turned up.
Haha. Yeah all that tire/wheel experimenting has paid off and I got it right on the first try this time. At least I hope, just waiting for the track to open so I can see what she can do as is right now.

As I said the turbo build is on the back burner right now. I did find the time to install a 22" light bar on my wife's jeep. I know there are some off road guys on here so I thought I'd share.

I also picked up this wireless relay with two remotes to control it.

For $120 total I am happy so far. It is blindingly bright. Time will tell how long the Chinese build quality will last.

Wish I had an update on the turbo project, but I have been putting in 14-15 hour days trying to finish this driveway before I have to return the equipment. I am honestly thinking about holding out for a 2015 4x4. I heard, not only lighter, but more power from the 5.0 too. That and the fact that the incline down my driveway is a little steep and worried about my 2wd trying to pull my camper on the gravel.

Like I said no turbo update, but here is the midpoint of the driveway, after the hill and the end result of my hard work. The shop is scheduled to be built at the end of May, but this rain has set us back.
This is where I got the skidsteer stuck the 1st day. I set a culvert and now there is a small stream trickling through it.

Boo turbo!

Just kidding, nice work.

Thanks!


I went out to watch some races and ended up running my truck. I said I wasn't going to bother mounting up the drag radials, unless it trapped over 100mph on street tires. Well my truck is slow. lol

I didn't really launch it as I wanted to see what kind of MPH it could pull to see if it was even worth it. Needless to say my Tundra ran better, stock on 22's.

I'm sure if I put the radials on and launched it would have dipped into the 13's, but I felt it wasn't worth the hassle. I am really not happy with the Intune. I tried to raise the rev limit and shift points to 6500 and for some reason it still shifted at the stock RPM, plus the fact that it takes fooorevver to make that simple change.

I just saw the procharger base kit uses the stock injectors. Not sure on the HP, but I figure they should support low 400whp. That is promising for my initial turbo setup.

what are you tuning your truck with? I went a 14.3 at 96 with a cai and a muffler no tuning yet I was hitting my speed limiter before I crossed the finish line :/

Diablo Intune 93 canned.

Tried to raise the rev limit/shift point and it didn't take. Plus it takes too damn long to make that simple change and upload it. I think HP tuners just released software for our trucks. I would maybe like to get that in the future as it is similar to KPro that I used to run on my Honda.

Honestly I more worried about the truck pulling my camper up the hill on my new gravel driveway right now. I am thinking about swapping tires to some Cooper A/T3 tires. The stock Michellins are pretty slick off road and on gravel. Hoping the Coopers will help and avoid me having to spend $10k more on a 4x4 model right now. Still trying to hold out for a 2015 4x4.

Yea I understand, what kind of drag radials did you get? What size?
