    Got it on the road and been tuning all weekend.
    I must say this is the best all around daily driven turbo truck I've driven.
    This big Thumper turbo allows the engine to breathe!
    NA driving is like no turbo is even installed.
    Has a lot of daily driving torque and there is really no need to get into boost.
    Even 2-3 psi feels incredible!
    Boost is controllable, predictable, and no sudden surge of boost.

    The two 17/8" logs into 3" primaries going onto a 3" Y into the turbo turned out great!
    Spool up is only a little later than the smaller turbos but once it comes in...!!!
    With better brakes 5psi can be had while brakeboosting. 2-3psi as it sits now.

    More info later but just wanted to post up initial results.
    Anyone still on the fence about a huge front mount don't hesitate do it!

    ya, not sure if he's running, probably so, keep in mind it's not a 1/4 mile truck, it's highway and street truck, but i think it'll do very well.

    I sure wanna see some dyno numbers and torque curve on this "highway truck"

    Get him a 150hp shot of naz for out of the hole....I'm sure that will cure that 3-5psi out of the hole symtom !!!
