Yes, I've been real pleased with them. The truck pulls insane now, I haul a 40' trailer with 310 square bales or 20 rounds, I can pass people goin up hill, I hauled it with a tractor the other day and a few times nearly forgot I had a load lol

How cheap? I paid like $450 for mine lol. I got them used with only a few k on them. Yeah, the 50s will be better on the egts for sure, especially if you haul anything I'd def stick with nothing higher than like 50-60s. That's what I've heard from a lot that haul.

Cool, the turbo should keep everything in check real nicely. What's the size of the turbo, other than the 62 part?? What's the wastegate set for? When you puttin the turbo and inj. in? The inj will take a good bit of the day, think matt and I did mine in 6 hours or so. We did his turbo in no time lol. My turbo was a pain, the exhaust downpipe was pushing too hard against it and was hard to line it all up cause of that.

Yup matt and I have done it. Its not all that hard, here's something thatll make it tons easier....get on ddp's website and download the install instructions, make sure you have a list of tools it says on there and an inch pound torque wrench. Its not hard, just a little time consuming. The meet is at my place in dublin. I think we'll all meet up in sville somewhere then drive out there.

My HTT is set for 40psi right now, I won't mess with goin higher, not sure what its actually hitting though, a heck of a lot more than stock, even before I put injectors on I could punch it in any gear and I'd have to really hang on lol. Now ill go 75mph in 5th gear, throw it to 6th and can just about blink once and I'm at 100. Its pretty sweet, should be right around 440hp now. Smarty is the next mod....along with 5 gauges lol.

Well if you come out to my place for the meet, ill show you where all my money is being poured into right now lol. I'd love to get one but just can't lol. I've spent $20k of my own just in a months time. Have a bit yet to spend on it till I'm done. Well with that part anyway. Matt woud prob get one before me lol....unless santa brings one, which I doubt.
