Message: [QUOTE="superpsd, post: 1034045, member: 15821"] I will be adding a boost/vaccum gauge on the discharge side of the intercooler feeding the turbo. I was going to add it today but the tap I need is at work in my toolbox. So tomorrow it is. I fixed a boost leak a clamp was not tight enough and a coupler wiggled back. Fixed that and test drove it. Boost is still laggy but there is definitely already a n increased response on the stock tune. I won't be flipping the switch until I can see what the pressure or likely vaccum is pre turbo and I will be ordering a 2.5" pulley for the Eaton tomorrow giving me a 2.7:1 blower ratio. Then in a little while I will be bolting on the direct replacement 2.9L whipple "1900 cfm capable". I checked all fluid levels today and everything is great. Truck is pulling strong. Now it needs to spin much faster. The intercooler is doing it's job. My IR thermometer is seeing a 35-40 degree difference from pre-IC and post. I also have a large bypass valve to install and hook up to let the turbo take over once lit up. My toy funds are all dried up as I just got married at the cost of over 15k. So it's going to take a few weeks to buy a $ whipple $ otherwise one would be already on the way [/QUOTE]
