Oreo, I see you're tossing a '99.5-'03 PSD turbo setup in your truck... FWIW, those years have a different compressor wheel than the earlier units allowing it to spool up faster. Your RPMs are low in OD. You may experience turbo flutter with that turbo. A backwards fix is the Wicked Wheel (old style compressor wheel) which slows down spool up creating turbo lag - this is hit or miss. A for sure fix is a superior housing like the ATS ported one which will render you fast spools.

With a higher flowing intake and exhaust, the flutter/surge is worse. Mine started when I installed a 6637 intake filter and when pulling grade.
