if you look up a diagram on how a variable geometry turbo or variable vane turbo work it'll better describe in depth how they function and how they are able create more boost and act as both a smaller charger and larger charger
@docofswank87 i somewhat understand how a variable vane works just not how you can turn up boost whit a knob without reving the engine. guess im headin to google
@118hellrider Variable Geometry Turbines change the housing volume with a ring with vanes on it that extends to reduce turbine housing volume which increases backpressure raising EGTs which will cause the turbine to spin faster from the increased heat generation. likewise retracting the the ring will increase the turbine volume while reducing the effects of backpressure on the turbine limiting turbine speed at higher exhaust gas loads.
considering I've drove the truck for 2 years now and I was there the guy adjusting the "knob" in the seat of the truck. I can assure you there was NOT a 6.0 anywhere in the vacinity of this video shoot.
You guys need to update the website bad!!!!!!! lol I'm gonna call Caleb the next time I get a day off.. Whenever that may be. I'm interested in what you guys can do for my 01 cummins!!!
no the second gen manifold have a much more smooth tone. yeah the 3rd gens do have a deeper tone at idle at below 2k rpm, but when you start putting a load on the engine, especially at high rpm, the deepness goes away and I've even heard popping noises.
all the way through the RPM range, 2nd gen manifolds (center dump) have an even tone. its probably not quite as deep as that of a 3rd gen manifold (end dump), but it is more consistent in its sound
well the 3rd gens have a deeper sound at idle and below 2k rpms. but when you start putting a load on the engine, especially at high rpms, the deepness goes away and it becomes raspy, and ive even heard popping on quite a few 3rd gens.
the 2nd gen manifolds (center dump) have a much more predicable sound, it remains smooth all throughout the rpm range, although not quite as deep.
listen to the video of this truck title "20mph roll" and you can cleary hear the 3rd gen sound
Is the knob/potentiometer for controlling the peak set boost or for manually controlling boost while driving? I'm interested in a retrofit on a 12valve but I wanna set it and forget it, not baby sit it. Can you do that with this box?
So the engine's computer does most of the work and the TurboBrake module overrides the commands? In other words, this wouldn't work standalone VNT turbo control on a mechanical engine?
they've built their own controller... you can run it on a mechanical engine. you'll have to add a factory MAP sensor (cheap/easy) and you'll need a throttle position sensor. easiest way would be to use factory stuff, but I asked Chase, and he said a standard 0-5 volt TPS could be adapted if you had a better setup. Also needs an RPM input, and they will be adding a drive pressure sensor setup later in order to perfect the exhaust brake function.
i'm sorry i just reread my earier post and was telling myself duh i should have seen that! i was not implying that you dont know what it is or anything! sorry
i try to keep up with things but i dont always read all the way thru or jus listen to a clip vs watching it..its that whistle that gets me:)! i'm def interested in a Cheetah for my LLY but i have heard things before that have caused me to worry,have you ever had any problems with this setup and how does it preform for DD?
Where are you guys located? Im deff impressed with this video

There r settings, Brayden can answer all of that.
If you have the center setting dialed in...the computer is doing all of the work on controlling the vanes. The controller si simply a overide switch.

now that's the lil feller, 64. Brayden wants to see what the 68 will do.
It's only setting 5 of 9 with the Smarty and trust me setting 7 is freaking wicked on the street.
75 mph and cruising, you punch it and can kick it sideways in an instant

It's a 64mm inducer, and 71mm exducer at the turbine.
