Sounds good, but a stock turbo is a waste. Clicked on "Contact Us", and it brings up a generic page. No phone number or direct email. I wouldn't be spending $9k without knowing where they are and a phone number. Didn't dig any further...

EDIT: And I don't like it in Fire Engine Red. LOL

It's a 38 (stock turbo), not a 38r...

What the hell is with all of the "stage 1/2/3" BS.

We use Stage eleventeen rotator splints in our dumofluggie convertors. These go well with our stage twenty five and a half HPOP that pumps into the stage 45 oil lines.

That 7.3 is an intersesting find. I can't get used to an orange colored PSD, Ford blue or black would look better.

Unless you're building a showcar with a color scheme, that color is just nasty gaudy. Oh yeah, and 500hp+ and no crank girdle = you buying a new engine before too long most likely. Thanks, but I bought my truck to work & haul and she does that just fine.
