I wouldn't choose a Pmax. A billet wheel and specific tuning is the trick from what I have heard to get them to run decent at all.

KC or Barder (since they are relatively local). I decided on KC as Charlie does awesome work and has great customer service and his turbos are more than a reworked Pmax.

100 psi boost and lots of fuel. That's how you really make power with a diesel.

agreed,i would like to see how they can do 100 psi with 4 bolts, most do good keeping under 30 to drive to work, maybe a dry block/head combo get over 100 and no worry about puke or coolant pressure at all.
