Towing with the PDR turbo and 3k kit

[C Schomer]

I installed the PDR turbo with my 14 housing and the 3k kit last week. I pulled the 5th wh up I-70 to the Genesee exit today. I see now what everyone means about the improvements from the gov spring kits. The entire range is a little stronger - especially top end, which is what I badly needed. It is STRONG into the redline now! I was very worried about more smoke at the shiftpoints but it's actually better now because of the quicker boost, I'm sure. Towing in town is an absolute dream - it gets thru the gears much quicker and smoother! There was little difference on the hill in 5th gear(could only hit 950 egt)but the big difference was when I dropped to fourth and mashed it. I held the rpm to about 3100, 1250egt and 72 mph. When I hit the steepest spots and speed started to drop, I held it to the floor and hit 1290 egt max and slowed to 70 mph. It was about a 3 mph increase and had about 3 lbs more boost than before. A little bit of the improvement is from the Twin Ram I recently put on but can't say how much. The stock clutch is still doing fine and I don't want to go too far for that anyway, so I think I'm finally near the end! I'd still like more fuel at the top end without sliding the plate and effecting the bottom end. I need a hybrid plate! Craig
