Turning up IP ... question

[snoman87]

Question is should I turn the Injector Pump up a little more than the recommended 1/4 for the turbo. Like 1/4 for the Turbo and then another 1/16th or maybe 1/8th for the J intake? Also it is possible to adjust the base idle rpm?

As you are probably aware I just installed a J code intake and ATS Turbo on a originally NA 6.2 and transplanted it into my CC. Exhaust will be straight through with maybe a resonator but definately no exhaust.

The intake won't help that much with a turbo, but I'd say you can go a little more than the 1/4 turn in the directions. The best thing to do is to turn it up the 1/4 turn and see where that gets you in respect to EGT and boost. Another thing you could do is go all the way and drive by the EGT gauge...

Hello All,

snoman87: I did 3/8 when I added my banks turbo, however i had to turn it back to 1/4 because my egt were too high (and i was too heavy with the right foot while pulling our 5th wheel). I had the deflector removed (the one in the radiator) and the muffler removed. If you do not have a heavy load or take it easy while driving you should be ok. Just watch the gauge.
hope this helps,
Don
PS expect 4-5 lbs of boost

Thanks ... this truck will be worked hard from time to time ... I will up the IP by 1/4 as recommended.
