What are you using to control the vanes on the turbo? I’m trying to configure a potentiometer on the pedal with possibly a position sensor of some sort
This is kind of an old video, but why did you choose this turbo man? I dont know if ya had it already layin around or what but is there a reason i would go this route over just saving some time and effort and just goin and pickin up a Fleece Cheetah? If its a money thing i get it, but im looking in to some options and im just generally curious.
The reasons why I chose the Garrett I’d say would be #1 the sound, I just love that crazy whistle , also the fact that it’s a vgt and not a just a twin scroll , having the adjustable veins is honestly mint too if I wanna haul ass I just open it right up and giver, I’m working on a way to control them electronically/automatically like it would on a CAN-bus truck. I also kinda wanted an opportunity to kinda fab something in , I’m a heavy truck tech so I really only have basic fab work. Wanted a challenge I guess lol, so far pretty happy with it , only thing I’m not a fan of is the manual control. Constantly fuckin around with the knob can get old quick lmao.
@@bdollery55 not a bad idea idk why I didn't think of that my buddy wants to program an ardunio controller to mine so I can have tifferent functions we found a formula to go by for every 1lb of boost pressure the turbo should read 1.13 exhaust pressure so the vanes should open and close as the turbo spools but it will take time to perfect but the di,mer switch is nice and simple and very controllable
If you want to run a manual control , all you need to do is wire an inline potentiometer, don’t use just a switch , my next idea is I’m going to mount one to the fuel pedal , the more you press down the more the veins open , hope it works good that way! If not I’ll leave it wired to the dimmer switch and turn it as I do a pull LOL
@@shanefoster. basically you need to vary the voltage, do some googling on potentiometer and you’ll know what I mean, let me know if you have any more questions!
Not hatin at all, sounds unreal! Why not spend the money and time on something that you can benefit more from? If you’re happy with where the truck is and want the sick sound then fair enough!!
Honestly bro it being on 10 lugs with no hitch and just a cruiser truck it was purely for the sound , ended up building a turbo for it for boost before I sold the truck and it was a total different truck after
I’m intrigued by a 6.0 turbo. Sounds great!
Thanks bud!
This is amazing. I want to hear this hitting the rev limiter
Hahah I should lol!
There is no limiter on a 12v
@@oliverlarrow8279 bro what lmao
@@evanlove3015 they're mechanically injected, just a governor spring
@@TheMahtBro yes which limits the fuel increase way before redline
everything needs a 6.0 turbo. This is a perfect example why
Green diff cover was thrownin me off but goddamn those 6.0 turbos sound awesome 🙌🏿
Does you feel a big difference in power compared to an hx35?
How did you actuate the vanes
This is insane
Crazy whistle eh
What size tires are you running on those wheels??

Ever come to a conclusion on that

@@bdollery55 if you can read what the vgt is at cruising on highway it should be around 40/50 and at idle it should be at 70/80
Because fleece cheetah sucks. Lol
Did you need anything special to mount it? I’m looking to do this in my fummins. Would sound sick
I have a video posted about it
It baffles me that Ford didn’t want their trucks to sound like a freakin jet
Well they did in 03 lol
I know this video is old but was it plug an play type deal or special hardware or tune needed?
No tuning as it’s a mechanical engine I have videos on how the veins are controlled
how do you control the VGT solenoid?
Using the dimmer switches potentiometer
Just got my fummims with the 6.0 turbo running I just don't know how to control it now
I control mine with the dash dimmer switch , all you need is a potentiometer, I’ve ordered a separate billet dial that I’m going to use in the future!

@@bdollery55 I wonder ig this could be done to a common rail 5.9?

Show us how you hooked it up! I would like to do this to my 92
Mister Epic Dan Bros will do!
@@bdollery55 gotta a video yet ?
Are the 5v or 12v signal wires
@@justincopeland7220 everything in a second gen is 12v

@@bdollery55 ok I will I have a 6.0 Turbo all were trying to figure out now is how to do the VgT's and all that stuff
@@bdollery55 is there any way you can send me a picture of your turbo on your motor please.
03 2nd gen??
1996 seccond gen 03 ford powerstroke turbo
Camera stuff
Ya I know sorry
Cumminstroke
Shure its not a cheetah or something cuzz I've never seen a pedestal tourbo on I6
It’s a garret gt3788va
Your tires called, they want their sidewalls back.

Oh I guarantee it! Did you gain thing? Other than quicker spool

Sooo... You put a shity engine in a truck with a great engine
No he put a turbo off a 6.0 PS and put it on a 12v Cummins

that's so stupid😂 owner probably 16year old!
