Thumbs up New BD automatic transmission amd injectors rocks.........
Last week I had Walker diesel (Houston TX) install a complete crate BD auto transmission with the TQ lock and pressureloc along with upgraded Bosh injectors.
This is in addition to the #5 TST plate, 16cm turbo housing and 4 inch exhaust from the turbo back that I have been runing.
I must say oh boy it like a new truck with a better tranny & injectors.
It is scary good, to have such a large amount of moving mass driving 80 then have some more omff to pass some small modified Honda Civic is a hoot.......

A few question though:
Is there anyone else running the BD torqlock converter control without a exaust brake.
I do not see any change during Acc/Dec with the toggle switch in lock up mode (red LED on) Maybe it is miss wired.

I noticed now that the EGT can get up to 1400 Deg as before it would only get to 1200 deg.
Is this because the larger injectors giving more fuel thus creating more heat.
The boost is still 32 PSI but now I have to be more careful with the EGT. How can this get lower.

Also for my 95 what would be the next practical upgrade besides propane or engine head work being done.
I plan on keeping the ole mechanical 5.9 for a while.

Thanks
