I'm also running a custom 150 horse race tune live (on new android tablet via bluetooth) with a 80 horse painless performance kit defiantly not stock tuning by all means

Talk about bringing an old thread back to life....... I guess it's worth mentioning that the OCR gets in the way if you need to service the a/c. At least it did on my truck last night when a new compressor went in.

Resurection time! Glad I found this thread. I've had this OCR on a shelf for a few years. Finally installing it along with injectors, turbo rebuild with Riffraff's 4x4 wheel (also sat on a shelf a while) and some other stuff. I emailed Jelibuilt to see if they recommend the OCR with their tunes. I would think so but it can't hurt to check with them. I'm so close to getting her started. Doing this and a boost leak/repair to ensure the new boots and everything are good, then it's time for the first start after new injectors, new CNC stage 1 HPOP, new lines. New fuel system (Irate RR). I'M EXCITED !!!

at first, I just put on a 4" pipe from header to behind the right rear wheel.

after a year of listening to the Drone at cruise speeds, I installed a Walker Big Truck Muffler.

drone is gone, no change in performance.
