6.7L On The Dyno

New Cummins Project Puts Up Impressive Baselines

With a trip over to Scheid Diesel’s Effingham shop this morning, we made 360 hp…

 


Not bad with only an intake, free flowing 5-inch turbo back exhaust, 80hp injectors and an AirDog. NO TUNING.

The first run yielded 354 hp, then we let the truck cool down a little and made the 360 hp pull, and the truck also laid down 944 lb-ft. Exhaust gas temperature never exceeded 1,350 degrees and the stock turbo pushed 28 psi.

Next week we’ll return to the dyno with a 175hp tune from H&S, a modified CP3, and ARP head studs installed. We’ll be looking for at least 500 hp—or as much as the turbo will allow us!

The truck drives real nice at this level. I’d have one if it wasn’t for the $50,000 price tag. Nevertheless, it should be one fun project.

Oh yeah, mileage is about 16-19 mpg so far.
