Yup. Personally, I think it's the best cure for surge. Much better than a WW, but also more expensive. Try checking with some of our site sponsors...I'm pretty sure you can get them for less than that. IIRC, mine was right at $400 a couple of years ago.

I put one on my truck about 6 months ago. Totally stopped the surge in the compressor. With cruise control on, and the DP chip in 60 tow, I was looking at 29-30lbs of boost, this past weekend pulling the trailer. EGT's got hot going up some of the bigger hills, but nothing over 1300 degrees. I paid around $400 for it, and got a overboost anhialator at the same time from ITP Diesel.

I installed one over the summer and all surge is gone at all boost levels. The ATS works great.

There not hard to do, just time consuming & a bit frustrateing at times (@#$% clip on the waste gate rod). I think I spent about 3hrs doing mine & that includes haveing to weld the waste gate actuator rod back together.
