GOING IN TOMORROW

So putting the truck in the shop tomorrow to get the studs done and turbo sorted out. I could buy a decent commuter car for the price but who the heck wants that lol. More to come--just hopefully all good.

Sweet, you'll be all set after all is said & done. Any thoughts on a turbo replacement if it comes to that?

If i did have to replace the turbo I'd stay stock i suppose. Mine is in good shape aside from the sticking, Now if i was going to do injectors, tuning, and exhaust i would probably go with a powermax.
