The 99.5+ crowd are the ones they are selling the Banks Wicked Wheel to.

The wicked wheel is a upgrade for the 99.5+ trucks, but it's the same exact wheel as our stock turbos. Basically it would be a downgrade to use a 99.5 compressor wheel on our stock turbo.

That's good to know so I'll just get a new wheel since one of the blades is bent.
Otherwise truck is doing good wife's looking at it like a money pit already (not good) I like it though
