There will be no confusion if people state where the probe is .
For example:
Before turbo , after turbo or Rawze style .

Rawze style. Strapped to the manifold.

I did more miles today approx 550, of which 200 was non interstate. I got fuel in Baldwin, FL mileage was 683136. That gives me 823 miles on this tank divided by 100.016 makes fuel economy 8.23. That makes my cost 11 cents per mile after my fuel syrcharge is firgured. Truck ran great again today, I will have to change the crank case damper, getting vibrations. Exhaust Temps ran about 420-450, and water temp never got to 185. Boost was below 10 psi for most of the day.

We clamp the prob to the exhaust manifold however if you do not clamp it on the very tip it will not read right. Say if it is 1 inch back its about 100 off. Most all trucks we have done to date run about 400 to 500 no load with load about 550 to 650.

I will check to see where the prob is.
Ran on 315 miles all in the State of FL, only 50 miles where interstate, the rest where all 2 lanes city driving. Truck is performing better than expected, boost avg around 10 psi.
Loads where heavier than usual on a water load now going to Acadia, FL. I guess tomorrow I will see how the truck does on a 200 mile trip all interstate gross weight 79880. Exhaust Temps did run higher today stay near 500, but water temp never got above 200. Outside Temps were in mid 90's, thanks Rawze for making sure A\C was charged right.

Yesterday not a good day as far as miles only 316. 200 interstate the rest was on 2 lanes roads with stop lights and senior citizens. I did get 100 gals of fuel, this is not a fill up so I wait until Tuesday to cal fuel mileage.

[74bassman]

Today was better for the miles 416, avg weight 30000 lbs in the box. Truck is still performing great. Exhaust Temps avg 450-500, boost avg less than 10.

Today was the beinging of a new week. I filled the tanks in Jackson,Ga. An accounting of last week, being the 1st week after Rawze. Total miles 2522 less than half were interstate, alot of 2 lane roads in FL. Total fuel 314.179 making the avg for the week 8.027.
Today the exhaust Temps did reach over 550, but avg was around 520. Boost avg was less than 10 psi, but did reach 30 psi a few times. I got my new damper painted, but not installed. Over all I'm more than pleased with my truck. Today I did 367 miles, with 4 pick ups, and 2 del. Wind was blowing good, and ran into some rain. The weather lead to some crashes and delays on I85.

[74bassman]

Miles for yesterday were about 560 and today 450. Running is still running great. Loads so far this week have been heavier than last week. Rain storms and crashes have lead to a few delays. If people want to 65 - 70 on the freaking water, they should get thier ass in a boat. Boast for the past 2 days stay around 10 to 15 psi, and exhaust Temps around the 500.

nice.
