thought I'd post A pic to show Fred's skills when it comes To building pipes.

Danny, I'm not trying to "bag" on the kit. Just trying to let people know that there is a bit of customizing that needs to be done to install this kit. There were only a couple things on my truck that had to be addressed. The things that were wrong have been addressed with Chad. I'd like to hear...

Got the "Kit" from Empire. Thedieselshopllc are the ones who did all the fabbing to make the "Kit" work. Basically this kit came with the F1c,mounting bracket, up-pipes, PT7175 "GT42 STYLE" turbo, new serpentine belt. All the piping was done by thedieselshop, along with many other modifications...

Finished product! Testing and videos to follow.

Will do, Thanks.

Probably around 2 grand. Pressures are read from procharger and at the intake elbow 15-20, 20-30, 30-50, close as I can remember.

It was the green belt that came with the bracket and procharger.

Was still rolling into it when it broke, boost was still on the way up.:shrug:

Well it busted before we could run it long enough to determine, but it didn't feel like it was slipping. All looked good when we were giving er throttle in park and watching everything. Was acting real nice the first ten miles warming it up and doing some half throttle runs.

Yep, no worries j/k back at ya. Gonna find a belt thats a bit longer and give it another try. They said it sounded sweet when we went ripping back by the shop.Was all warmed up and giving it a half throttle run from 30mph,hit about 45-50 psi, when the belt decided to leave the truck.

Hey, no comments from the peanut gallery!:blah::blah::D

Not exactly sure, best guess is the belt might have been a little tight. Doesn't appear to have any other damage besides it snapping in half. :shrug: Any educated guesses are welcome.

First test drive went well. Second test drive not so well. :doh:

Thanks for the tip buddy.

Buttoning up a few things today. First test drive will be tomorrow,should be two gopros along for the ride.
