Chris, have you had a chance to try the S480 yet? Just curious to see how it compares to the FI76.

PS: Your PM box is full.

I just picked up a FI 476/87/1.0 paired with 150%'s and dual pumps, on a 1800uS tune it hits pretty hard starting at 2100-2200 rpm.

Even with my truck currently being a 5.9 6 speed, if I shift at 4300-4500, I experience about a second to be back on full boost.

Looking to load a 2200uS tune soon to see if it'll come up a tad quicker. Click the image to open in full size.Click the image to open in full size.

I'm not surprised at all that this truck saw more boost going from a 10+0 wheel to a 6+6 wheel.

JasonC Thanks! I hope to have updated track times with the 80 / 350s in the next 3 weeks.

My 03 is fairly similar to yours, trying to step the injectors and turbo up in the next couple weeks.
It's weird they don't talk about the 92mm turbine any more.

I have heard they were $500ea, maybe that was for 96mm housings. What different sizes did they have?

I was asking about the 1.10 and 1.25 housings but they had .9 and 1.0 available. I believe T4 is where the $200 extra comes into play over the T6 housings, but that could be wrong.
