Well it is sorta like this , Now in all my years of working on hopping up and tweeken engines driving truck and running equipment just how many of you have ever said that this car -truck - tractor - bulldozer ever had enough POWER and IF IT JUST HAD JUST A LITTEL BIT MORE!!!!!. AND there will alway be someone that can and will turn the screw or tweek the computer chip to JUST GIVE IT A BIT MORE . Now sometimes a LITTEL twist of the screw realy won't hurt noting and will not real bring EGT up enough to worry about it But that nice shinny guage sure does look good setting up thereand also adding that shinny stright pipe look realy COOL and makes lots of niose and make ya think ya got a big hammer . But if one still is not happy with said engine after he has added the turbo on only gained maybe 10-15 ponys on a stock pump setting if he got that then the next thing is lets open up the pump JUST a Littel Bit as i have this new pyrometer and i can watch it so they open the pump[ and now instead of running a lets say 750 drgrees under load at the stock setting now with that littel twist of the screw she is now running up wards of 1100 -1200 dgrees . Well as they say when they go they go but when they GLOW THEY BLOW.
