[QUOTE="superpsd, post: 1341473, member: 15821"] I ran last summer without the blower. I put it back on because drivaility with it was better. The stock turbo is slow to spool with the blower I found it to greatly improve response time. Getting thru traffic or cruising along at 1200 rpm and stabbing it produced better action response with the blower intact. Also fuel economy didn't change much. Never really calculate as I could care less but highway fuel economy was about the same and I didn't see a drop. With a stock turbo and tune you could get a bit of smoke until the turbo was online. Do nothing but put a blower on in same conditions smoke would be reduced. The reason for reduced smoke is the fuel is more effeciently burning inside the CC instead of being pushed out the exhaust. This led to a snappier truck down low. I felt no difference in power up top with or without blower. There is no load on the blower once the turbo is rolling. This uses very little power to turn and unloaded blower. I am also not done yet. Stock turbo will be gone soon. [/QUOTE]
