So the company I work for just rebuilt a truck it’s got stage 1 injectors,cam,turbo and a fass fuel system. All new fuel lines. On a hard pull loaded it runs good for a couple seconds until it builds boost which wraps the 45lb boost gauge then starts shuttering and sounds like it’s running dry then if I get out of it and back in to it it still does it. The tune in it is the 550 hot tune. Any help would be apreciated.
Cat3406e runs fine empty but when loaded miss fire

Need to verify fuel pressure doesn't drop when under load. really sounds like it is starving, not having the correct fuel filters on the engine can cause the fuel pressure to drop as well.
cderuyter24 Thanks this. -
I’m not a mechanic.
I know some cats will take 46#+. You said you’re maxing out a 45# gage. Is it up against a pin at the end or does it wrap around? If’s without a pin and your guesstimate is ~50# or more, you may want to verify your blowoff/pressure release isn’t stuck.cderuyter24 and Oxbow Thank this. -
