I started another thread on this. From what little info we have, they appear to the BW K03's.

I've never checked my turbos -under load- just doing stupid stuff with the truck. Like, I know Ford has stated several times that the fuel PSI can go as high was 2500 - but i've never seen it over 1500, even in full throttle acceleration. the next time I have an excuse to hook to something heavy I'll have to remember to check it. The ECM seems like it is capable of figuring out how much load is actually on the truck and limiting power.

Mine boosts at about 12.2 PSI as well, forgot to write that earlier
