Turbo Air Guide

Was wondering if anybody is using or have tried the TAG on their 6.0. If so please tell me the results and if is worth the dollars.
Thanks

Isn't that boost? Or are you talking air/fuel, which is not a needed measurement on a diesel... If you have a particular item in mind, maybe post a link so we can go take a look. I'm at least curious!

The item is on Diesel Performance Parts Power Chips Diesel Exhaust Intake Performance Products and it is called the turbo air guide, it is suppose to direct air straight into the turbo instead of the swirl effect.

OH! I misunderstood on the first pass... I have since read the product data sheet and test results. Theoretically, it makes sense... The 100% downside for me is that it is reported to reduce turbo noise.
I like turbo noise!

2+ MPG reports are subjective, as we all know. Lowering overall boost to produce more HP is good though... I'm without the ability to decide how I would proceed. Someone needs to step-up and test this for the forums sake.
Maybe Dustin?
