I hear that... the 341 isn't big though. just an early common rail turbo. crack can be fixed..

I would rather have a 351cw though. 341 isn't really any better than an hx35. would be great as a secondary in compounds though.

Yeah I just need a mild bump in airflow to get my EGTs back down.

I did a test last night as I suspect after the codes I have gotten that maybe I really do need a new APPS and MAP sensor.

So for the test I set my pump and can maxes to 85% throttle position (in other words 85% is now WOT) and also changed my boost scale to 20psi (means once I reach 20psi the box will be allowed to go to maximum fueling)


before those two changes I was still only seeing about 40-45psi on lvl 2 canbus fueling, and about 60-62psi on wiretap fueling..

after the new settings, I saw 55psi on canbus fueling only, and 70psi on wiretap fueling, and OMG it made a HUGE difference in power! felt like I gained 100hp just by changing those 3 settings!

be interesting to see what this thing does on the rollers

vp44... (electronically controlled mechanical injection)

P7100 (aka p-pump) is 100% mechanical. no electronics.

wombat has the VE pump (it's kinda like a 100% mechanical version of the VP44, only a bit smaller)

and anyone with an 03 or newer cummins has common rail injection which is 100% computer controlled. injection events are not mechanical. all injectors are hooked to a high pressure rail and injector open/close events are done via electronic signal to the injectors. more precise control and far easier to build power with this system.
