Cool My luck!!
well got the truck to where all i needed was injectors and a chip. but just my dumb luck started getting low boost numbers. one boot on the y connection has a qaurter size hole in it. the other is almost there. where is a good place but cheap place to get these? and what all is involved in replacing

you tell me but i got tires, brakes, ball joint, and alignment done at kytes and brian said there is a decent sized hole. may be a tad smaller than a qaurter but the list just keeps getting bigger.
