No I didn't. I questioned Gillett about this before i bought it and they said technically you are supposed to but since everything is balanced individually it should be fine. Everything is working good so far. Probably only gone 100 miles though. Its kind of ones own judgement call as i see it.

turbo

IMO the 60mm wheel is to small for anything over none i/c injectors i would go with a 62/65/14cm it spools faster than the 62/71 the 71 also surges at low rpm towing so you have to keep the rpms up witch means poor fuel milage talk to matt at gillett he could shed light on it for you.

I agree with Wannadiesel, It is what I used on my Rig. See my sig, I never see more than 1200 degrees pulling a 20' enclosed car hauler. I am VERY happy with the GDS kit.
