3406E injector mod

A friend of mine has a 475 Cat that has been "maxxed out" through the pcm. He also said that he has "opened up the injectors a full round". Anyone know what specifically he has done with the injectors? His pulls a dump wagon and pulls away from 550 cats on the hills like they were 350s.

I haven't played much with the 3406E but the 3406B is a complete different story. Acert turbo, turn up the pump and governor, different injectors and a few other small things and you have a huge power horse that is a lot of fun and really smokey. I don't give the specs out on anything and neither do the other people I know that have the information.

As far as what he is talking about I don't know

This same guy had a "B" model that was a little stouter than his current truck. We called it "the train". It didn't have larger nozzles so I could only imagine the power of your truck.
