As far as fulling goes. We have been dataloging our truck for about 6 months and the fuel pump is at 47% duty cycle. I see a lot of people saying that it is starting to max out, and I do not disregard what they are saying, but it seems the actual pump is okay. Maybe it can't go above 47%, maybe it will, but at 15psi on stock turbos we are fine. Maybe something else is limiting the flow, but we will find out.

Also, I spoke to my manufacture, the turbos are smaller than the 2860, so I don't really have a comparison right now.
Exactly what he said flow and psi are.two completly different things.

My truck is maxed on the stock pump at 20psi on the stock turbo. I can assure you fuel will be an issue. But I look forward to your build

With meth, mine has dropped to 28%. Easy fuel.

I knew what he was trying to say, but I started to cringe on the initial statement. I have no doubt that 10psi on these will come a whole lot easier than on the stock turbos...

I am anxiously waiting.

Hey bro, no judgement here. I was hesitant to post this, but I like to learn, and I'm pretty sure that you guys like learn too, don't be afraid to post stuff. So, we will use these turbos to learn what the EB can and cannot do. Maybe the fuel system wont take more than 20psi? It's an opportunity to find out and solve that problem. I don't mind working this out in community, warts and all. However, I think it will be epic, these turbos exist, will be put on a truck and the results will be shared.

Can't wait to see results of this! Hopefully these are at least close to production, I'm tired of all the talk about we're doing this and that and months go by with nothing.
