Well.........
Right off the bat....the engine was actually quieter than before.
Driving down the road...the stock turbo will spool almost immediately with just a simple tap of the acceleration pedal. Way less smoke than before. Throttle response is about 3 times quicker than before. Get about 35psi very quickly. Can't wait to either add a larger turbo or go with a stock over a 400 series compound.
The EGT's are about 200° cooler and it has a slower climb verses before where it was instant hot in conjunction with the boost gauge. It will cool almost instantly verses a slow decline as before.
Now with the Smarty and EZ stack...wow!! the thing is a different machine. It will not go over 1400° even holding in the skinny peddle on all stock mechanics. Turbo at 35psi. Smarty on level 7 Revo, TQ1, RP 0, TM 4. The EZ I had it set to 1. I will increase them when I start to increase my turbo/injectors or twin setup.
Mike and Kevin are great guys! They took the time to make sure that every thing was right. This setup is a definite benefit to any stocker or mild to wild setup as it helps the performance with such a simple install. I am glad I didn't wast some $$ on an CAI before I got this deal.
I will have to wait and do some calculations on the mpg and will post back later to see if that increases or stays the same. May wait for about 2 tanks before I post the results. I will hand calculate.
All in all... I am very pleased with it as it feels like a whole new truck again, Thanks Mike and Kevin!!!
