boardude's [YODAGAN] Build

They only had an industrial fan pointed at the front of the truck. Unfortunately they didn't provide the pressure and humidity readings.

 

Sweeeeet!

 

I have no clue what that entire first sentence means. But its fun watching people take guesses.

The mustang dyno that ESTuned has, has a built in Load cell. The load cell allows the Dyno to mimic road conditions. This type of Dyno is better for tuning as it cam more closely replicate the street driving. It also loading of car that need a load to make boost. Its an adjustable load.

So for an NA car its for sure going to be low. What I would have been more concerned about would have been the AFR's. When you start moding the intake and exhaust of a modern car some times the computer can compensate some times you lean it out.
Here is a Video of My Evo on the same dyno for some tuning. I can't find a video of the GTR on there.

 

Thats a cool video! Sounds awesome

Yeah I should have got a baseline prior to throwing on the headers and exhaust. But at least I have one now for when I throw on a SC (hopefully sooner than later). AFRs were right in line but I did find out that I have the wrong tune installed that could make her run super lean. I altered the BD tune to the trail which was made specifically for this setup. I want to take it to a dynojet but probably won't be for a few months. My mods are on hold for awhile now lol

 

Played around with the GoPro a little bit earlier and got a cool sound clip from behind

Pretty cool Kris !!!! I'm gonna run up to the taco shop for some dinner. That video makes me wanna drive quick...........

 

Lol Get out of my way its Taco Tuesday!!

 

Finally ordered some gunmetal grey 3M wrap to cover all the silver interior trim. First did the cup holder, shifter surround and shifter. Then wrapped the shifter face in matte black for a cleaner look.

 

Love it bro haha. Quick question, whats the reasoning behind the carseat on the driver side?

 

I'm going to offer my 2 cents on this even though you asked him. With my rig, we put the car seat behind the driver's seat because when my wife is in the truck with me, it's easier for her to turn around from the passenger seat and reach back to the baby that's behind the driver's seat. At least with the first kid. After the first kid, you don't care as much, and just bungee cord them in.

 

uh... good question? Lol. This was before she was born so it was more of a test fit to get everything level. Since then it's been moved to the passenger side. My wife is still recovering from a c-section and its hard for her to get in and out of the truck so we mostly take her car which the seat is in the rear middle. Man have I learned a ton in the past week lol

 

Like how to live with no sleep...

 

Yeah we feel like zombies half the time and the past week has been kind of a blur lol

 

Yeah this is absolutely on our list to get both cars checked out by the FD.

 

While I'm aware that accidents can occur anywhere on a vehicle, I think the passenger side is the safest.

I was driving on a main highway last year and around a corner, some kid was on his phone and smashed into my company Sierra 2500. He took out the whole driver side back seat and the bed of my truck. Had a car seat been there, who knows what would have happened.

 

Someone once mentioned to me that the passenger side was better because when you park on the side of the road it's away from the street. Not like you would leave a baby in a parked car but thought it was interesting

 

I lived in Golden for a few years when I was younger and I loved it. If we were to ever move out of state CO would be a top 2 choice for sure.

 

Finished wrapping the center piece in the dash with a matte gunmetal. Also wrapped the air vent rings and 2/4 wheel dial in a satin black.

Compare from the silver








Also started wrapping the silver pieces in the doors

 

I hate how patient and talented you are lol.

Make me pair of eyelids would ya!

 

Lol then we really would be twins! I have been thinking of doing another pair just a little more aggressive, like angry eyes style. If I do my current set is all yours!

 

If you lived closer I would totally help you do this. Just 1 of many reasons to move to AZ lol

 

Put me at the very top of the list!

 

Finally got to use and test out the P3 brake controller this past weekend while towing about 8k lbs and it worked well. The only thing that I didn't care for or even realize was a feature of the P3 was that it stays on for about 15 - 20 mins after you shut off the truck and goes into "sleep mode". I don't really like this as I don't anticipate using it on a daily or even weekly basis and dont want to rip the dash apart each time to plug it in. So I installed another switch to kill the power. This way I can turn it on when I need it

 

Just to be safe you might check with the P3 manufacturer and make sure your not erasing a memory of some sort and have to reprogram each time. Just a thought.....

 

Yeah thats the only drawback is the switch would reset the controller after about 15 mins. But P3 suggests to unplug the controller if you dont always want it on (which I'm not ripping the dash up each time for) and states its completely safe. Not really a pain to reprogram it and could just always leave the switch on too.

 

Finally finished wrapping all the silver trim. Didn't realize there was that much till I started doing this lol

 

Any tips on getting the center of console off? Did you have a diagram?
Did you wrap or paint the steering wheel parts? Tips on that!!
I have started doing the same but stopped at both those parts.
Any plans on doing the door handles...
Looks great man! Excellent job on the build!
