Welp, got a problem with the Ty. No start situation, with Codes 15 and 33 showing on the Scanmaster. A few weeks ago the truck went dead while on the way to work on nightshift, had it flat-bedded home. The Scanmaster shows Codes 15 and 33. I've changed both the coolant temp sensor for a new...

Re: Turbo I run bowl-ported L35s, 20G/14cm, 60s and a 2800 stall and I too am curious as to how you can super-spool a 14cm exh with the stock converter. With the 2800 stall the 20G hits like a slug to the chest, I don't see how you can get that same kind of instant RPM/spool with the stock...

Re: blowoff valve Got one on mine also, shrieks like a banshee when you get out of it under boost. :)

Re: hellllpppp i did sparkplugs n now over boosting Man...you haven't even tapped the outer layer of what these trucks can do, why sell it all of a sudden?

Re: Sy #877 build up Last year when the fresh engine went in, all the A/C stuff came out. I never used it and don't regret removing it. It cleaned up the engine bay and provided a bit more room. I drive my Ty daily, year round. Just my .02.

The 304.... The 304.... Hey Matt --- saw you bought that killer 304 in the "parts for sale" section. What kind of power #s are you looking for out of that beast? Sure looks badass!!! :tup:

Flexalite dual electric fans.... Flexalite dual electric fans.... I have a dual electric fan set-up from Flexalite. It has an adjustable temp fan-on setting, mine is set to come on at 165* F. The prior owner installed it, I have had the truck for 3 years and drive it daily in my 40 minute...

Re: 8th Annual Canadian SYTY NATS Sept 28,29 That's quite a drive from Vancouver, wish it were closer. Sounds like it will be a blast!! :tup:

Re: Flipped oil pressure needle revisited Mine has had the 'flipped oil pressure needle' issue since I bought it back in '09. This looks like a neat and quick way to deal with it. Thanks for the write-up.

Re: Battery relocation I'm interested in your battery set-up, did you fab up your mounting bracket? Do you have any close-up pics? Thanks!

Re: Are you running a stock bottom end with a turbo/heads/cam upgrade? --- Some chips like the Turbo Tweak VeloSyTy have an option for a 2nd program when meth is used.

Re: About to install 5 gauges ... install vacuum block? --- As to which to install first, if it were me, I'd install the Scanmaster before anything else --- the knock retard function is the most important piece of information you'll need going forward in modding the truck, in my opinion. I...

Re: About to install 5 gauges ... install vacuum block? --- I have a Scanmaster 3 in my Ty. Great way to keep an eye on knock retard. It displays two parameters at a time, and I usually have mine on 02 Mv and KR. Highly recommended.

Re: A/C Delete and defrosters? I have the AC delete and also live in the PNW area. No problems at all with the defrost and heater -- they work the same as before the AC was removed.

Re: Custom Cam Agreed. In my opinion, there is no need to 'cam' the engine for RPM like a N/A build. A conservative cam with adequate lift that maintains bottom-end torque and throttle response will run just as quick if not quicker than a 'big' cam. The turbocharger is where our power is, so...
