Full tilt around 40 boost and 55-60 ebp. In my opinion for daily driving, some towing occasionally, and interstate driving the 3.73s are perfect for my driving style. I cruise about 75-80 so 4.10s would annoy the piss outta me. If I was building a strictly play truck with no interstate driving I'd probably go 4.10s or higher and just say *** traction. Don't know how much my opinion amounts to but there ya go haha

I wonder how much difference the full build with the intakes and valve train make on boost levels. Im seeing higher boost than that, but my truck isn't gonna breath as good as yours. I guess it also depends on where your gate is set. Have you heard it pop off yet?

I love the howl these turbos make at low boost. Sounds like a wolf. How are the toyos holding up??? My rears are half gone at 5k miles. Fronts look great!

Are builds are different I do not have the intakes but my setup remained the same before and after. I can tell you I am seeing lower boost numbers across the board with a lot more throttle response. I talked to Mike about this and he said that would be the case.
Awesome truck Pete!

Boost will always be relative to what you have done. Just a measure of restriction. Why I laugh at dodge kids when they brag about making 80 lbs on a bone stock truck so they're just pushing hot air. I haven't heard a "pop" per say but I haven't really taken the time to pay attention. Toyos are holding fine so far. I mostly poke around in tow tune so I haven't been too rough on then yet.
Pete does that stubby antenna have as good reception as a stock antenna??
It really depends on the strength of the stations signal. In Columbus I can get all the stations but it gets hazy sooner then it use to when I get out in the country towards home. But I have a very low garage at the rental so I did it more so my antenna didn't scrape the garage door.

Well the 1st attempt at a 4x4 launch didn't go as planned. Deer decided to check out the truck lol. Had to let out right as I turned it loose. No truck or deer were harmed.

Video I took showing the drive ability of this setup with Tadds tuning. This is what we call Petebaker hill. Averages about 13% grade +/- in a few spots with some tight turns. Set on "Tow" tune, locked out 6th and 5th gears, and took the the hill slower than I normally do to see how she did. As you can see it hazes just slightly at the bottom but overall very driveable with 3.73s and Tadds tunes.

Video was too big for Tapatalk so I put it on YouTube
