3.0L turbo
about 3 years ago I turbo'd my Vulcan. I started with 4psi, and then 9psi, and now I am at 13psi on stock internals. hope this encourages others to build their trucks to. I know guys were telling me that "this build is not possible" but I still have a DD that is extremely fun to drive.
if I had to venture on how much power I am making.. on 9 psi I was @ 251 rwhp and 274rwtq. since then I have added P&P heads and P&P upper & lower intakes, and 13psi. I should be around the 310ish rwhp..

Re: 3.0L turbo
I don't think that a stock Vulcan can handle 13 psi. Maybe a healthy, beefed up one with a nice hard bottom end. But 13 PSI? Some EVO's don't even run that. If you have it at 13 psi, and you run it hard, I guarantee it won't last long.

Re: 3.0L turbo
I can't believe there is so many haters. you guys should be happy that there is guys like me out there pushing limits and boundaries.
I raced a new 2013 ram r/t and pulled on him when I was running 9psi. *not on video*
I raced another 2010 ram r/t with a CAI & exhaust and put lengths on him on my 13psi. *on video*
raced an ecoboost and slayed it to. *not on video*

haha I have my own stretch of private road. it is guys like you that fuel me to do what I do. things that "can not be done". I like to prove you guys wrong.
you don't need to believe me. it is possible to be another man made machine with another machine.

Re: 3.0L turbo
there is no way you are pushing 12PSI out of a 3.slow and it being reliable
