Close your turbo waste gate should give you a bit more boost. Also you can buy bigger exhaust mainafold with more flow I think the best seller on the market is bully dog 30 more hp with that.

How do i close the waste gate ?
-
there is a little rubber hose approx. 3/8" OD at the turbo, take off one end of the line and shove a round object into it and hose clamp the crap out if it so it doesn't fall out and secure it to something that's not too hot and your done.
I have a 3046E set at 550 and I'm going to do this today to see if I gain anything, I'm hauling silage on a 2 mile round trip, 4 corners, lots of stop and go at 45,000 lbs empty and 85-87000 loaded so I'll know real soon if it helps on my end and let you know -
Super, but how do i get 550 hp, mine is knly 475 hp, its what i want to do to, thank you
-
look what i found , http://www.ebay.com/gds/NXS-Manual-...ation-Install-Guide-/10000000004194851/g.html , it's almost the same thing , but this one lets you adjust the waste gate , and is very simple, check it out, and again how you went up to 550 HP ?
-
how that did work for you today ? did you got the boost ? check the link i posted
-
I forgot you can also unplug fuel sensor and splice a small resistor in wires instead also horse power boost
cata917 Thanks this. -
ok, but in which wires ?
-
