1/4mi. testing with new GDE turbo!!!

Got ahold of a friends Gtech device, and went to find a lonely flat stretch out road. The results are below. Conditions weren't perfect, as the road was still damp from a recent storm limiting the amount of boost buildup (resulting in wheelspin) during launch even in AWD mode. Of which all testing was done.

15.7@87mph 1/4mi. via G-tech 10.2@70mph 1/8mi.
0-60mph in 8.3sec

Now, keep in mind this is with 31" A/T's, a traction limited damp road, and with a full tank of winter blend fuel!!!

Did some more testing finally.......with the 235/75-16's on stock rims. Made several runs and the best I got in 0-60 times came while launching in AWD at 2200rpm's. Best 1/4mi times were using 2wd and launching at 1800rpm. All this using a G-tech device that has proven very accurate vs. officially timed drag strips although the 0-60 times have always been off on the low side by nearly .5sec so you're alwaysquicker than readings suggest.....weird seeing how accurate the 1/4mi times are. I was able to back up both times, reaching a 8.01 0-60 time and several runs at 15.4-15.45..........but other than that, never could get back below 15.4 except for that one pass. Still impressive to say the least, and beats GDE's results.

These are the actual recorded numbers
7.97sec 0-60mph
15.37 @ 89mph 1/4mi.

We prefer to under promise and then over deliver when it comes to our products. Gives the customer a good feeling long term! You must have been pretty hard on your torque converter to get the holeshot advantage. Makes me want to go out and retest

Here's data for you in comparing stock vs. new GDE turbo. Using a stop watch and a co-pilot/assistant.

On my previously totaled CRD with stock turbo on 245/70/16 Goodyear TripleTreds I was able to achieve 10.5 sec from 0 to 60, but after I installed the GDE HotTune, I was able to achieve 8.7 seconds on the stock turbo.

My present CRD achieves 10.5 sec on the stock turbo with the GDE hot tune on 245/70/16 Goodyear TripleTreds.

I have no clue as to why such a difference in times, still trying to figure this out.

Makes me want to buy one think what the numbers would be with and LSD in the back or even a full on locker. This seals it for me turbo tune will have to be on my pre-SFA list.

How quick was it stock?
Green Diesel has been good to me. Have been wanting a GD turbo.
Please post the starting, stock numbers if you have them.

No stock numbers to give, sorry! I don't think I was too hard on the torque converter, power breaking at between 1800-2200 anything more and the wheels would spin regardless of how hard I stood on the brakes in either 2 or 4wd. But I got to say, the hole shoot in AWD at 2200rpm was awesome with a 2.01sec 60ft. On that 7.97sec 0-60 run!!!!!!
