WW Installed&CFM Intake

[zambonimaxx]

Howdy Fellas! Well I finally got around to installing the WW, CFM+ intake manifold, EBPV delete turbo pedestal, and EBPV delete exhaust piece from Sinister Diesel. All went well, except for the down-pipe again, removing that from the rest of the exhaust turned into a nightmare I tried heat, tried PB plaster nothing worked so the buddy that was helping me and I ended up cutting it off the rest of the exhaust and simply band-clamping it back together at the end of the build (no leaks all is well, and it was a SS band clamp as well). Anyway got the turbo pulled did the rebuild, and installed the WW then the CFM intake manifold. I must say that the EGT's stay cooler, and it spools up faster...I did however notice a 1-3 PSI drop at WOT in any of the tunes. I have a link for a video attached. Running in the Economy Tune then switched to Heavy tow (By accident) I thought I was in Daily tune, but I have left it in Economy as I am forced to have a light foot (my son was born on Wednesday and this was the first time I have gotten to drive without him). Anyways, here y'all go!

Can you get a picture of it under the hood? would love to see it!

how much did the intake run you? i was thinking about doing it.

Here y'all go. This is the CFM intake...I did the foil delete a while back but I did not finish the glue on there (I actually didn't do it my wife was half working on it while I was doing other things). Then the last one is of the EBPV delete pedestal, and the big hoss outlet.

Sounds like a nice WW to me. doesnt the exhaust sound so much nicer without that thing in the way? btw we're you just putting your foot down lightly? Cuz 15 psi aint much. I can nail over 20 way too easy.

Nope I was in economy tune. I will never boost higher than 18 in economy. I just forgot it was there. I made a run to the store this morning and boosted 22.

Looks good man! Whats the point of the pedestal and the delete? (I don't know what they do)

[zambonimaxx]

The EBPV is the Exhaust Back Pressure Valve. It is that hissing soundyou hear on cold start ups. The delete simply takes the actuator out of the pedestal, and the turbo outlet delete completely negates the valve, and frees up some of the exhaust flow.

Nice, do you know if that conflicts with an exhaust brake if I was interested in doing the same mod?

[zambonimaxx]

I am pretty sure that the exhaust brakes will go on post turbo...all the EBPV is is internal to the turbo housing at the moment, I doubt that it will interfere.
