What We Have At This Point

The charger and power comes in smooth and continues to pull hard all the way through the rpm range. After our initial test drive we'd guess our truck's a solid 400 hp to the tires and no matter how hard we pushed it, that pyrometer wouldn't get over 1275 degrees F. That's 400 useable, streetable and very drivable horsepower. Smoke clears up almost instantly, making for clean, efficient power with this combination of parts.

The best part is, you can grow into all of these parts and you've just laid the groundwork to a solid 550-600 hp truck. You're just some internal pump modifications and a little more air away. There's no need to swap these parts out for different ones should you decide you need more power in the future. The injectors will support 550-plus horsepower, the 62/71 turbo can be used as the top turbo in DDP's compound turbo set-up and the injection pump parts will all be used again once the internal mods are made. So no wasted cash and that's always a good thing, right?

Keep an eye out for future issues of Diesel Tech where we'll go a little deeper into the p-ump, swapping out some of its internal parts for even more flow. We've still got a set of very trick digital AEM gauges to install and we'll be adding a set of Dynomite Diesel's compound turbos down the road as well. We've really only just begun.
