Default turbo f150 video (long over due)


finally made a video of my truck. currently running 5psi, ordered an 8psi spring and will be heading back to the dyno soon. going to pick up some shims so if im not happy with 8psi hp, i can shim the spring for more boost

If you don't mind saying... How much do you have invested? I've been thinking about something similar since the ecoboost came out.

at 5 psi it made 310rwhp/350rwtq. hoping to see about 375/425 with the new spring. im buying a house in vegas so ill be out there next week so not sure when i can get back on the dyno. going to call my tuner today or tomorrow when i dont feel so lazy LOL

ive probably got about $1300-1500 in the kit and $475 for my tune. hard to pinpoint the price because there were so many little things that i bought that added up fast. for example, the hose that runs from the turbo to the oil pump i just bought was $15 and the new wg spring ( which came in the mail today) was $33. doesnt seem like much but those two small parts add up to almost $50

Man I would love to do that to my truck but I don’t have the *****/mechanical know how. I am seriously considering a supercharger, just don’t have 4 grand to play with right now. But I like your idea, $1500 for good HP and TQ.
