I love it. I am still taking it easy on it to break it in. A few more miles and I can realy see how it will sound and perform. Now I just have to save up for fuel mods and a DP-tuner.

Rock on bro!

You got it. I will not have any dyno results due to the fact that I do not know where there is one close to me but I will give you an honest opinion about it. So far it is great.

On mine the peak EGT's dropped about 200 degrees when I put the BB turbo on.

I just came back from a 500 mile tow test (it was really a vacation) with my 20" enclosed car hauler (about 6000lbs). Max boost that was reached was 20 psi and max EGT was 1200 at approx 2400 rpms. These were reached in the White Mountains in New Hampshire. Overall, the performance from this thing is great. The truck does not bog down as much at low rpms and seems to be running more efficient than it did before. I can not wait to get more mods done to this thing!!!

On a side note, the wife was looking at me funny while I giggled like a little girl when the turbo spooled up with that wonderfull whistle as we were ascending the mountains.
