So I was looking around for a reputable shop and a few of my friends said East Coast Diesel was some of the best around. I have been doin research and most of the reviews have come up with glowing praises, but I also read that they just split up and now its ECD and Pro Diesel Werks.
My question is, I checked out PDW and Ladell/Lamar only show trans builds on there, do they still do regular work as well? or does ECD handle all of that now while PDW is strictly transmissions?
Ive been trying to learn as much as I can about the P-pump but it intimidates me (and Im an A-tech/Mastertech in BMW, Ive done Porsche, BMW, Benz, GT racing, etc), and with work being such a busy schedule I might just want to pay to have it done for peace of mind. The mileage on my motor is pretty low (apparently 20k or so, the original one scored #5 pretty bad), so I was going to have headstuds, valve springs, 4k GSK and some pump tweaking done.
As my truck sits now, the PO has SDX 5x14s, Comp DVs (181s I believe, I have to ask him for the parts list tomorrow), 100 plate, brand new stock lift pump and HTT 64/71/14. I finally got my hands on it last thursday and im so hooked on 12Vs its not even funny...I cant drive a gas vehicle anymore LOL. It does haze a bit on the highway, and even with the stock gov still in place it freakin hauls (and blacks out the highway in the process). I would like it turned down a bit to see if I can cure the hazing, and the EGTs will climb through the roof if I really lay into it in 4th or 5th (not mashing the go pedal, I roll into it around 1800 or so to get the turbo to light and then start pressing it down further), it spiked to 1400 today and I immediatley got out of it. Peak boost was around 45-46psi I believe.
Crusing the temps are between 6-800, 5psi give or take.
