Second, what is it that you've seen. If you have information, share the specifics.

You wouldn't happen to have any alterior motive for sharing your thoughts would you?
As far as cost are concern you get what you Pay for?,When Purchasing aftermarket Products for every day use you should think of the future,Dose the Hardware change factory applications,availability,ease of removal, etc.You may find yourself on Vacation stranded in some small town waiting for replacement Parts for Days.

I have an edge BB turbo that I ran on my 01, and it IS a good turbo. It spooled nearly as quickly as the stocker and flowed very well on top end. I'm sure my truck could have used more air flow, but I think the BB did very well. I just wish it would bolt onto my 06, and I would still be running it.
