don't have any pics, but received my kit today and everything looks great. the ceramic coating on the pedestal is super nice, came with nice 4 ply silicone couplers, every single nut/bolt/fitting/adapter you could possibly think of and new up pipes gaskets. cant wait to get it on and snap some pics! thanks again morgan

When do you plan to do the install.

Realistically next weekend, 6-21. I have to collect a few other parts that don't have anything to do with the single kit so I can kill a few birds at once while I have everything apart.

Well, got a chance yesterday to install this kit. I must say the install went very smooth and its a very well designed kit. Everything lines up very good on the up-pipes/downpipe/pedestal and makes life easy. Got done late, so i'm loading Matt's tune on it now and gonna go obey the speed limits and all the rules of the road today... and I'll give a full update later today or tomorrow :thumbsup:

Looks Like It Belongs There. Are You On Stock Fuel?

Haha!! Just realized half my pics are upside down... I suck at the picture posting sometimes.

As for the turbo, it's a HTT S371 with a billet wheel and yes I'm on stock HPFP and nozzles at the moment. I haven't driven it much so far, but if your on the fence, just do it. It's already a better feel than my 72/59. Only other thing I might add is a BOV. I get a little compressor surge, nothing bad, but I prefer none if possible. I'm gonna talk to Morgan about it and see what he thinks.

Also playing with some different tranny tunes from Matt to see what's works best also. I'll post my finding tomorrow, or after I get some miles on it.

compressor surge can be tuned out, but the 71 is going to surge more than a 66... it can be tuned out for the most part. you can drive around it, but if you've got a tuner who's dealt with that combo, it shouldn't be too terrible to tune.

what tunes are you running? higher shift points/keeping the RPM up will help a ton with surge

I have Matt's tuning at the moment. He told me when he made them if I needed to adjust anything to just let him know after I ran the truck... So I'm going to email him tomorrow about the surging and adjusting the shift points a little higher too. I'm sure he will be able to get it squared away
