Figured I would do a little update, got my exhaust finally done as well. It's pretty quiet, 3" down pipe to 3.5 from 3.5" to 4" muffler and pipe out the side. A little on the quite side compared to being n/a lol here's some pics
3" dp to 3.5" I had laying around

Just got done driving about 60 miles on this new set up.. numbers @ 60mph flat road: egt 475-500*F boost gauge was 1.5-2psi. When I hammer down I have ZERO SMOKE!! This is a good thing, boost at 11psi and egt didn't get any hotter than 750*F. With that being said I am thoroughly impressed with the performance of this truck now, don't get me wrong I was happy before but now I am just tickled pink.. I can also say now with the up pipe so close to the firewall my right foot does get a little warm lol, yes my pipes are wrapped

:-) I like to hear that, buddy has a 96 and I pull really good on him. He's like what "what kind of chip u have?" Lol I don't! 100% mechanical baby, just a rebuilt pump/injectors and a used turbo, and only making 10lbs of boost

i used to tell them i had a bullybog stacked on top of a edge, stacked on top of a superchips. combined i was making almost 700 hp, and that was why i was having clutch problems cause the clutch was only good for 600 hp.
if you tell the story convincingly, the idiots will believe almost anything.

So I know this has been brought up time and time again.. but what is the Max boost a 6.9 can handle? Yes I've got stock bolts, I ask because I can hit about 11-12psi or more no problem and I don't want to hold it there without studs lol. I might turn the fuel down to maybe keep the boost down
