Airaid (may or may not help) and I had Torrie's tune in it then. I'll have to rechallenge with the new tune in it from Socal.
And to make me feel better for myself I need to challenge it with the Flex

I would think the 13 turbos with a better CAC should hold 20psi pretty well...I was clicking that number pretty regularly on some of my logs.

I'm looking forward to seeing what Geoff's stance on how efficiently they do it though. I remember some pages back I thought he mentioned a kit to upgrade to the 13 turbo's which wouldn't be desirable if there wasn't a bump in power available.

Matt@morkindesigns seems closer to accomplishing that. Rolled twin 56mm turbos but the question remains when will either that setup or this single turbo set up be available???? And which will be more efficient? My guess is the twin 56s, just because they only changed the compressor wheel so you get no added turbo lag but you get the added volume of air needed to maintain power on the top end. Neither have solved the fueling issue... so who can push more pressure doesn't matter yet. The question is... who can spool quick and maintain the RIGHT amount of pressure through the quarter mile? I plan to wait and see that head to head matchup before I bite that bullet.

the turbo bimmer crowd are just puting a 255 in tank pump and running the stock highpressure pump and they are pushing 500+ hp. i would think thats all that would be required to run around that power level in our trucks.
I honestly think the fullrace single kit looks sloppy, i do not like the crossover pipe running atop the intake. it would look much cleaner running under the pan like almost 99% of single turbo set ups on v-type engines. from what im seeing on their site it just doesnt look like they spent a lot of time really "trying" but what do i know. at least they tried, and are close to putting something out to the public. I wish they would have worked on selling some twin upgrades with some aftermarket or ported manifolds.

^^^^ There's obviously time in their kit. This is a display truck for one, the kit is easily seen. If I spent that kind of money I 'personally' would show that thing off every time the hood was popped, lol.

Difference in taste, not everyone likes the Bugatti either.

I think we need a sequential set up, one small turbo to get this turd moving and a big one to keep the fun going up top.

Are you referring to the tune, lol... Or did you get to drive the freakoboost. I've only had one cup of coffee.
