Yes, Matt's Ex is faster.

That thing sounded like some hyper-extended Japanese video game from the 80's.

That was.... not impressive in the least. Twitchies truck would kill that thing, Hell MY truck might be able to hang with that thing close enough to make having a back seat worth it.

Sounds like he has an Eaton S/C since that's exactly how the Gen 2 Lightnings sound.

Moving this over to the GAC guys.

That's a pretty custom turbo there-
Aside from the various piles of idiocy shown in that clip, he's only running 8psi. That's not enough to make real power. Also, either his tach is way off or that truck is entirely geared wrong, if it is geared that low then it can't be making any more power than stock.
