getting off the line
This is my first PSD I have had other diesels in the past most recently chev 6.5TD and it had a wastegate turbo that had pressure alway built up so it would get of the line just as fast as my 73 wagoneer that has a built 360. My PSD has turbo lag that I am not used to but once the tubo kicks in my 6.5 can't touch it. I know how to power brake but have been a little reluctent about it just because it is a $50k rig. It also has disc brakes in thee rear which I have never had. So to get off the line do you power brake until the turbo spools up?

here's my recipe for success. get to the line engage 4-Hi wiggle the steering wheel a little to make sure the hubs lock mash the brake then the accelerator pedal when the boost needle stops rising slid your foot off the brake at around 25-30 i flip it back to 2-hi and follow thru.... i've fun low 16's in 87 degree Sout Carolina weather in my SCLW truck |
