I think the custom tunes help with the lag since its flows more air, and you can run stock sticks from what Ive been told.

Why wouldn't the van turbo be the same as the truck turbo? Just trying to learn/understand...

The housings are bigger to keep the EGT's down since the vans didnt come with intercoolers

It has the same "mechanics", but different exhaust housing (1.15 AR) because the vans don't have an intercooler or wastegate. It was designed for that application, but is a bit of an upgrade to our trucks because it can handle higher boost numbers (30-35psi, IIRC).

It seems to have pretty much all you need. It also looks like it has a 1.0 housing. I saw a blank pedestal and the unit looks like it is going to be non wastegated and non EBV setup.

It bolts right in place, but I think you have to do something on the outlet. Like get a non-ebpv outlet to bolt on. The stock ebpv outlet will not bolt up, but I read somewhere that you can have it welded on if you really want to keep it (I think it was Brandon's -- bdrummonds thread). I didn't look at the ad, so I don't know what it comes with. Mike says it has all you need, so you'll probably be in good shape...
