Cool I'm Psychotty'ed NOW

Watching my tracking from UPS for my Psychotty system would be here today so I took the afternoon off. I drilled the hole and then desided I would do some testing and then install the Psychotty tube and rerun the test. Here are the results.
On my test hill with just the RE-0880 in 4th at full throttle at 2750 RPMs the EGT went to 1300 + deg. before I lifted. The temp gauge in the truck showed 87 deg. outside temp. I returned home installed the Psychotty tube. getting the angle just right took me almost an hour. Re ran the same hill now the temp gauge in the truck shows 92 deg. and I was able to stay full throttle all the way to 3100 RPMs and shift to 5th and stay in it. The EGTs never got above 1200 deg stay right at approx. 1175 deg.

I got home again and pull the AFC housing and moved the torque plate all the way forward. I reran the hill now the outside temp is 84 deg. and I'm right back where I started EGT wise right at about 2750 it climbs to 1300 + deg. With the #11 plate all the way forward there is a big seat of the pants power increase. I really thought the RE-0880 by itself had dropped the EGT some but not even close to what the Psychotty system does.

Scott way cool product it was worth the wait almost. LOL
