Looks like the 96/88 turbine. When you went to a bigger manifold charger did you jump to another brand or just bumped compressor size?

I don't think Chris messes with anything other than BW for mid frame chargers. He seems to be pretty fond of them.

I like how the Firepunk crew runs their shop, knowledge, and trucks instead of their mouths. :clap: You all are truly one of the positives in this industry right now and I hope like hell you plan on showing up with this pile of parts in Tulsa May 21st. 
Nicely done, gentlemen. Nicely done indeed. :clap: :clap: :clap:

THE KT-BOUNDARY
Trying to determine where to mount the seat for my short little legs.
Fabricating the steering wheel and pedal mounts.
Spaghetti Menders did our wiring harness and I would recommend them to anyone. You fill out an order form with all the circuits you want and they build the boards and switch panels that are all connected with data link connectors that simplifies the wiring process.
We went through Sam Smith @ Carolina Diesel Performance for our Afco Shocks since he runs them on his Pro Street Truck and gave us good direction on what we need to get started.
We fabricated the front Coilover mounts into the roll bar support that came up through the firewall, we also wanted the bar up front to mount our front clip supports to since we cut everything else off.

When I saw what you said, this came to mind.
that would be the perfect paint scheme for this truck. :rockwoot:

Ive wondered the same and how it doesnt happen more often.
I had my drivers side rip out of the factory position and now I run chains.

THE KT-BOUNDARY
Added the Anti-Roll bar, a ladder bar setup generally does not need one and we ended up taking it off after the first few passes as we felt it was limiting suspension travel. At Rudy's we got a 1.41 60' with it on and a 1.40 60' with it off so we will probably leave it off the back half for now until we get more 60' testing done.
Fitting the Fiberglass doors was a lot easier then we expected, drilled holes to match the OEM mounts and bolted the OEM hardware to it and they fit exceptionally well.
We had to measure and cut our own wheel wells.

Getting the doors and bedsides mounted was pretty straight forward, the front clip on the other hand took 3 full days of work to get mounted/fabricated.
We made an internal aluminum frame for the fiberglass bedside, and welded all-thread to the frame mounts so we can adjust its position in/out and remove the bedsides with the removal of 4 nuts.
The first clip we got was a "PRO" Dodge ram nose and it took a little bit til we figured out it was 9" too long. GTS put a regular clip together for us that had a cowl in it like I originally requested. The "PRO" nose was originally made for the 2WD Puller. Greg @ GTS had forgot he had a mold for a long nose.
The Correct clip looks much better!
