Glad you like it, wished we could have had some dry pavement to finish tuning the settings. Once you get a chance to fine tune it you're gonna love it.

Moderator; would it be best if this was moved to the Switchblade section?

Nice set up.

Yep, going to keep my eye on this thread, not really in the shopping department right now but I do have a ported T-4 manifold to use

You would be really surprised how well this flows on the big end with the large turbine housing when the blade is all the way open. It's like a little dog with a big dog attitude!!!!

It's in the plans but I've towed with a 66 and on my truck this turbo will work better than the 66 did.
