I had to pop in here just to see what you fellers were up to. Looks like good things are to come, Byron. It's looking great so far. I've about had it with my IC (but I'll reserve that conversation for the OT thread and another time).
Git 'er done Byron!

It just doesn't seem to do any good on my truck. I lost a couple pounds of boost when I put it in and I can still get the EGTs up to 1100 degrees with stock injectors when I'm hard into it. I suspect there to be a leak somewhere, but I can still make close to 20 PSI boost when I'm really into it so it can't be much of a leak. I'm not sure what's going on...

When I ICed the mule and mare I was disappointed. I never brought it up on here. The $1300 IC I bought out of desperation slowed the raise of temps but I'm still disappointed. I hear those claims of certain amount of decrease in temps and I just shake my head not wanting to start an argument. I know it helps some but it's overrated IMHO.

Wait till you use them ones, you were just using too big of injector. They do help.

Thanks Darin! Much appreciated! I don't "love" how the cold side pipe looks, but it works! Stay tuned...I'll have a photographic record of the fun Travis and I will have.
