in my sig below is a link named...exploded view of a 7.3..in that link there is a 99 to 99.5 turbo swap..you can see the early 99 turbo and wheel there..the bigger turbo sitting on the orange pedestal is the 99.5..that has the wicked wheel in it..
I want to take the early 99 wheel out and measure it..I do not believe they are inter changeable...I believe the early 99 wheel over all is smaller then a 99.5..

here is the stock early 99 wheel..other pictures in the link below..i dont believe you can get any other kind of wheel for the early 99...look close at the opening to the wheel..see it gets much smaller..i believe the wheel as a whole is smaller then a later 99..ill measure it later on and post it for you..

i have 37's on my truck and i never noticed turbo surge until i put the dp-tuner on when i get on it on any setting i notice it above 15 psi....

I was wondering if anyone else had done a dyno run with 80econ, 120 race, and 140 smoke.... I would like to have a ballpark idea of what i'm making

You're not experiencing surge if the gauge just vibrates 2psi. Mine does that, it's normal. The problem is that the boost line coming from the engine to the gauge is a little too short. A trick i learned was where you could find a space, make a large (6" or so) loop out of the boost line to add area and to make the air change direction, it should make the gauge steadier. When my gauge goes near 28-29psi, sometimes it will hover between 28-30 under constant load.

My boost gauge also vibrates above 15 psi and at 25 psi it's real bad. The shop said all early 99's are that way. Is that true?
Try gillett diesel in Bluffdale just off of I-15. It is a high performance diesel shop and they have a dyno. They recently changed names phone #'s 800-638-4679. I have been there several times and they have done good work. Real easy to find just look for the parking lot full of Cummins.

What kind of gearing do you have?
Is your tranny slipping?
Do you have oversize tires!

I agree. With my mods I can get a healthy bark out of my 37's any time I want from a stop, That's with a Predator set on 60! I do think that you may have transmission issues.

I'm going to dyno mine soon, but first I have to get a scan tool and find out why my SES light came on today(I have a good idea why). Time for a laptop and AE I suppose.
