We pulled onto the highway billowed black smoke and he...

    Air Conditioning Issue

    Check out the pic below. I could touch the factory plug and the compressor would cut on and off with every touch. I cut off old plug and took some speaker connectors and connected them to the old wires and plugged it back in and it was fixed. Takes 5 minutes to fix. Took half the summer to...

    New up pipes,turbo, wastegate controller and problems

    Yes I have adjusted it to were it should make more than 30 psi and the truck wont make more than 25psi. It runs like a slug until you really get on the throttle.

    She is back at the shop now. We will see in the morning. The up pipes are the bellowed international ones from dieselorings.com. Diesel tech mentioned they were not the ones from ford. I said they should seal better than the ford pipes. Anyone have them with the 38r turbo?
