Sticky VGT.

4 more weeks..ffs sake youll be used to it and not need it by then...but i sure like mine..the exh brake on that cheetah is really good. my trailer is heavy...and the buggy is almost 2500...so probly closer to 25k than not..i think the trailer alne is 13 iirc. it does a great job on the ga hills

There's zero chance I'll be used to not having it...ever. LOL

Our camper is 12,552 lbs dry and it is not a pleasure towing without that extra braking by any means. I'm just hoping it will have enough extra seat of pants power to tell, the brake works better than stock, and honestly...I'd love to have a little more turbo noise. Factory VGT is way too tame.

 

[dieselbeef]

youll get all that. mines got stock inj too so youll be alot better off tuned and stuff...but mine is a d&j extreme so idk how much that makes a diff but it is cammed and ported..yers is cammed right? THE CHEETEAH is a great swap...

Mines tuned but engine is factory top to bottom with exception of the deletes.

Will you need it re-tuned after chaning out to the Cheetah?

Since I'm running canned tunes from H&S I don't think so....I'm hoping not. I guess we will see.

I think @aka_chewy meant engine tune...or that's how I read it since we were talking tuners.

It's a drop in replacement. No mods needed to run it.

Yeah, was referring to the engine tune. Didn't know if the added 'capability' of the cheetah made a new tune necessary or if it was recommended at all.
