I hate Instagram honestly. I just have a lot of friends on there that I like to keep up with.

Lol that’s one of the reasons I don’t have TikTok.

Alright, here’s a pull. I think this was 65% throttle. You guys see the dark blue steady line across the bottom during the pull and at the end it jumps way up? Well that’s turbo wastegate percentage. So during the entire pull, the wastegates are completely closed at 0%(2.7 is the inverse of the 3.5, when the 3.5L says 0% that means the wastegate is wide open) So doesn’t that mean I have room for more power theoretically?

For anyone who doesn’t have Instagram, here’s a highway pull. I believe it hit 426 hp or so in that pull.

Nice and thanks for the post

JLT intake is installed! Looks really good and the turbos are so loud it’s ridiculous. I will get some videos up tomorrow.

Begs me to ask, why not remove the underhood insulation blanket? Even more sound? KM

Would that actually make them louder? What’s the insulation blanket for anyway, fire?

Looking good

I bet the paint on the hood benefits?

My wife said the same thing about getting one up soon!!!!!

Here’s a short video of some intake sound. Not the best video. It’s also not full spool in that video either.

Here’s an interesting bit of information.

Basically what’s happening is during WOT, my wastegates were 100% closed, resulting in 22.5 psi. Not a bad thing, but here’s what was actually bad.

See this photo? (I took the actuator off the stage 2 turbo and am comparing it with my stock turbo wastegate actuator on my old stock turbo.) This is the wastegate actuator, shoved all the way till the wastegate is closed, and that’s how far the bolt sticks out for the preload.

Stage 2 Turbo’s Wastegate Actuator

Now, take a look at this picture. Here’s the stock wastegate off my old stock turbo. Look how far the threads stick out, there’s a lot less preload on the stock wastegates. So, I threw the stock wastegates onto the stage 2 turbos, and hopefully that fixes the problem.
