I've been running one for about 25k miles now... you gotta make sure it's got a big compressor wheel... 60-62mm at the inducer is good. it'll spool up a bit slower than a PDR turbo, but it'll still do a good job. it'll spool up a lot slower than the stock turbo, but EGT's will also go up a lot slower!

what other mods does your buddy have? unless he's got a good amount of fuel running through it, he might be better off using it to build a hybrid. especially if he's got a heavy truck w/ 3.54's

if he DOES have some fuel running through it, it'll pull like nuts on the big end compared to the stocker!!!
