Well here I sit broken hearted...
Naw, its slow going with one guy and limited space to work. I'd actually probably be done but I had to put in some hours elsewhere today. Just started back at it got the rear water line back in on the passenger side which is actually half the battle with this install. Line up the oil feed next and its smooth sailing

Understood, but it's a simple process people do it all the time.

I guess you misunderstood my question. I didn't ask what was for sale, I specifically asked what was done to the turbos. I was interested to know if the housings where cnc'd for the impellers or if the larger impellers just fit. For $2800+ I'd like to know what I'm buying...

Additionally, it has been stated that they spool as close to stock. How close to stock? It would be sweet to have them lagging, running next to no boost until say 2500-2800 rpm for better fuel economy.

Yes, the housings are machined to match the new wheels. They are also fitted with an upgraded thrust, and the transitions are gasket matched. As far as lag is concerned, you're the first one who has asked for it, but Erick can probably help you out. I know just enough about tuning this truck to get me in trouble, hence I partnered with someone who knows what he's doing. Even with our road tuning and track nights we are still getting 18+ mpg. It's not Earth shattering mileage, but it beats my wife's Tahoe and she just gets groceries in it.

I read that it comes with a tune, now is that just the tune and the tuner is not included in that price?

^^^Just the tune, you'll have to buy an SCT if you don't have one.

I have the money aside for a full race kit, But I am interested in your kit sorry If I have just missed some of the important details but from my understanding it comes with the 2 turbos the hardware to install them and a break in tune.. But what else will I need to buy to get the results you did? I see you have a decatted stock pipe but not sure what ill need for extra fueling I will need a new intercooler I would imagine do you offer a full package including that a discount? sorry if I am asking stupid questions just I want to make sure I know what to expect as I want to buy it today.
