AND THE POS TOOLBOX.......ONLY HOLDS MY FIRST AID SUPPLIES AND SOME TOOLS..... HERE U CAN ALSO SEE THE CABLE AND PADLOCKS I WASTED MONEY ON SINCE MY SPARE DIDNT FIT UNDER THE TRUCK LIKE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO FOR A FEW WEEKS.

 

whats next?

installing the stealth 2.85

Im still bottoming out the afr at 10 during WOT, so why not?

 

first post in Brock's build thread. Everyone pat attention in here, you just might learn something.

 

bahahahha, congrats Mr 1st poster.

Im not a great teacher, but Ill try and answer any questions

I will say this....................

I can still get 320-350 miles per tank IF I choose to run it that low, which I dont most of the time.... I try to fill when I hit 1/4 tank.

most common mistake I hear "ur gas mileage will suffer with a supercharger"

incorrect as long as your not boost crazy with the right foot.... The bypass valve must be doing its job. Besides, just today I was driving up cuesta grade in san luis obispo (7% grade) doing 50 in 4th behind some slow cars.... boost gauge read "0"....... I then seen an opening when people got the F' over, and hit the gas.... boost gauge read "6" until I eased back on the gas and cruised up it doing 70 (in 4th again)and the boost gauge then read "0".

 

Got any full-shot pictures?

Love the boosty mc boost maker...

Matt

 

just stopping by to say and im going to keep this thread

 

Not recent.............Its pretty subdued on the outside... The only thing u notice different from any other SSM is the tires, sliders (which u need to be close up to see anyhow since they are tucked to the frame), toolbox, and a (now empty) Avid offroad light bar. Shes a sleeping giant.

Im hoping to wake up the Boosty Mc.Boost soon with that pulley
Ive already blown through 1 set of tires

Ill get some more pics soon....... like I posted above, its plain jane from the outside now... All the pics I have on hand are with sock decals, DSM decals, lightforces, blah blah blah..... Im liking this plain Jane look tho

 

It's a good looking truck, stock or otherwise. I think if I did a performance vehicle, it'd be way more fun to have a sleeper than a show piece.

 

makes things easier in parking lots too.......... SSM is super common around here. She blends right in and doesnt draw attention

 

Guess I'll sub to this slow pos

 

howdy Mr. storm trooper maybe not a storm trooper!


wait, is that 3 out of 4 of you being storm troopers?

 

Yeah stormtroopers are in here. We just feel bad for SSM's y'all are so close to being the best color we want to give y'all support...

 

So close, yet so very far away.

I probably shouldn't count since I'm wrapping mine soon. Sad to see the storm trooper go.

 

Hey Brock. Finally found your build, nice list of mods you got going on there. I am really digging the gauge pillar.

 

Thanks Matt

The lotek...... Funny, my phone put in blotek ...... Has terrible fitment but it does the job.
Also just broke the end off the ultragauges mount.... I pulled the gauge off of the gooseneck and the fucker blew up in about ten pieces.

I messed with the torque app last night, but I guess when I put the curbweight in, the setting were still on KG...... Cuz I noticed the settings page showed kg, km, and liters...... So I just clicked lb, miles, and gallons.

Did a run.... I don't expect the HP and tq numbers to be nearly correct but I was bored and wanted to see how badly they estimate the output.

I got on a 55mph road..... Charged up to 55 hard....... Went. Home and played the video with
a gauge overlay......



470hp.......... 590tq
Uh yeah something's waaaaaaay the hell off!

I'll try again soon with the right weights.
Then in order for REAL NUMBERS, I should be able to get on a dynojet at button willow this month when my girl has time off.
This will happen..... I flaked on the mustang dyno because...... Well its a mustang dyno.

Any guesses?

U see my mods above...... Plus I SHOULD HAVE the 2.85 pulley on.



Lmao..... I looked and the setting for weight changed to lbs........ But the values didn't convert right. The truck was shown as something like 8500lbs!

I think I put in 3700lb....... Sound right for a full tank, toolbox, my tires, and 270lb driver?


Anyone?

 

Subbed for my mod twin LOL.
