^ heh.

We're (Tuners Inc.- Orange Park, FL) doing before/after dyno tuning with Full-Race components to aid in product development.

Hopefully we'll get some good data to boost sales. Pun intended.

I saw on truck universe tv show that precision turbos are upgrading the impellers to a 7 fin.

Hate to say I told you so, but as of now, Full Race's upgraded turbo f150 made 15 hp more than the stock turbos at 5 psi LESS boost. And Morkin's upgraded twins trapped 5 mph faster than stock turbos while using stock boost levels. Neither of these trucks had fueling upgrades, either, or higher stall converters, or transbrakes. I love it when experience and theory comes together...

Wasn't Morkin's even less than stock? I thought he was only running 11psi on that run? Or is that what stock boost is, hell I've been tuned basically since day one so I guess IDK, LOL.
