I am no expert, but, I think you would like this set up.. and the T4 gives options in the future.. I am early in my eperience with it but it seems to spool up quike and cover the fuel pretty well. Iwill for shure let you know how it does as I put it to the test.

Thanks Jason, let us know. I have to admit, I'm a little disappointed but heck, with a load its a whole different world. Usualy its higher EGT's but who knows!

Thanks Darin but I think the owner of that Fairlane should be my sponser! LOL I don't know, if Jason can only hit 1150 with 2's then its got to be helping. I can get over that at WOT empty. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to throw turbo's on until you find the right one??

I have been with my brother before pulling his 5R ( and you know his set up) and he would hit 1250 or so and it would not go beyond. My opinion is .. the s366 is not going to help you with EGT, but I am turbo dumb. maybe s4xx would help you more??? Or as my bro has, modded h2e??(no fire wall mods).. BUt, I like the options availbl wth the T4 mount.. So far the s366 frome Jake is verry responsive and great for the DD or as a fun street truck. I will be towing more in the next few weeks, so I will let you know my results. Keep in mind I am in S.C. so our hills are nothing like what you have to pull..

The S366 should help quite a bit with EGTs, especially over a stocker. A truck with stage 2's, stock turbo, and an aggressive tune can see 1600* by 60mph at WOT. I can get mine to 1400* on a very hard run empty and towing 13k in the tow tune I have seen 1100* pulling some hills, but I was able to hold 65mph at those temps.

I'm just like you Glenn, maybe worse means I don't have water injection. Backing out on some hills when there is so much power left to use. Turbo is not really in the budget right now though, so sorry don't think I could sponsor ya, way it goes I guess...
