Just a had a few minutes to give you guys an update real quick.
We did some more testing and breaking down of the manifolds/up-pipes/down pipes etc.
-Aftermarket Performance Air Filter Setups vs Std Factory Air filter setup ZERO difference.
-Upgraded down pipe still down about 2hp on the average with both Stock manifolds and upgraded performance up pipes.
-No real solid definitive drop in EGT's from factory OEM clearance manifold to Performance Manifolds and LML style manifold. But did see the backed original gain of 4-5 hp all the way through on both manifolds.
-Very SOLID noticeably lower EGTS with the larger diameter up-pipe setups when coupled with either the LML Manifold setup or the performance manifolds. Stock Diameter up pipes coupled with performance up pipes or LML scene ZERO Degree drop in EGT's.
-Average of about 5 hp gain with Hot Side pipe increasing to 3" Diameter Setup. As well as an Intake Air Temp drop of about 8 Deg.
-Average of about 2-3 HP Gain but NO IAT drop with going to 3" Cold Side pipe and 3" LBZ Intake Y Bridge. (ran with OEM and with 3" hot side pipe)
-Our Stage 1 push rods Zero HP gains or any noticeable difference. (Which only reason we tested is for the mere fact that some companies promise 10 hp gain from the simplest of upgrades)
I am probably going to get thrown to the wolves for this but the simplest of ways to put it with out mentioning of any companies is that above listed is of the ONLY products we have scene performance gains or benefits from which includes fluid testing, additive testing, and whatever else bolt on product you can think off.
Now IF you guys can read between the lines moving on to turbo testing and fuel injectors our initial setup is your straight up Rotella 15w-40 Oil, Fresh Off-Road RED Diesel with NO FUEL additive.
We did see some boost in HP with some GOOD Cetane but it is not a product offered over the counter.
Now on too some good gains in power! :thumb:
Next up will be turbo upgrades up to 64mm in size with 60% injectors
