    Any turbo ls knowledge?

    It'll wipe the street with most fully built Duramax trucks. I do know that.

    LML Which company?

    Keep in mind these trucks weren't meant for heavy off road use. They were designed to tow the off road rig, not be the off road rig. So, that pretty much negates the point of a tire that big on these trucks. With that said, do some research on the "Norcal fender mod". We have been running...

    More turbo threads I read the more confused I get

    Not my personal truck, no. However, I have experience with multiple trucks running stock fuel with that turbo with excellent results. Stock fuel trucks with that charger spool as fast as mine does at 7000 ft elevation with 60s and dual pumps. That's the beauty of that charger, front stock fuel...

    More turbo threads I read the more confused I get

    For performance VGTs, I don't believe the 68mm stage 2r can be beat. It is a very impressive little charger. I'm at 7000 ft elevation with significant fueling but mine spools like a stock turbo/stock fuel truck. Excellent drivability, incredible sound and makes impressive power for it's size...

    More turbo threads I read the more confused I get

    I always love the guys that tip toe around the transmission issue. They don't have a problem spending the money on more fuel and air but hate the idea of spending money on a built trans. It's always kinda poetic justice to see the guys smoke that stock trans so shortly after adding power. Kinda...

    12mm or dual fueler

    Either option will successfully get the job done. A single pump makes for a nice clean under hood appearance. Some prefer the "bling" of the dual pumps. A single obviously requires you to go digging around in the valley while duals can be installed without any of that headache. If you ever plan...

    Somebody please talk me out of this.

    Not unless it was dirt cheap, you knew the history, and planned to drive it to death and never resell it. I've had experience with a few buddies that wrecked trucks that were bought back and rebuilt. They were never the same. Just a basket case. I'd buy a salvage title for a hunting truck...

    Stuff to do around Phoenix

    This time of year go north as fast as you can and get out of that hot shit hole valley. Come visit me in Flagstaff. Currently sprinkling rain and 75 degrees. Beautiful. All the outdoor playing you can handle. Biggest pine forest in the country and it's all public land.

    2012 Cummins w/467.5 FMW

    The truck I've had experience with sounds very similar to your buddy's build...2010 6.7 Cummins. The truck trashed a stock 68rfe after 5k miles with nothing but a stock delete tune. It's currently running an S464, "150 hp" overs, dual fuelers, Hardway tuned, 48re swap/Suncoast internals and PCS...

    LBZ: Built LBZ daily driver issues

    I think you'll be very happy with that 463 when Steve dials it in. PS...don't lift it

    LBZ: Built LBZ daily driver issues

    Apparently my idea of good drivability is very different from others. I run a 68 stage 2r with 60s and dual pumps and spool is very similar to stock. I'm also at 7000 ft elevation and your elevation will play a HUGE role. A single 75 will not spool up here no matter how much fuel or what tuning...

    Cadillac CTS-V

    I have casually shopped them myself for a little while. I have heard that on the early models the stock rear end was notoriously weak. I have also found that a manual trans sedan is very rare, especially colors that I would want...white, black, silver. Not to mention one that hasn't been...

    Fastest single VGT

    Sometimes the derails are more fun than the original topic.

    Fastest single VGT

    :rolleyes: That may be the gayest thing I've ever heard you say, and that's really saying something.

    Fastest single VGT

    Na, I wanted to see how far I could push the little VGT. I know it's capable of 10s without an issue if I stripped it but I'm lazy and really don't want to. I also know is probably capable of 10s as it sits if I dialed in the suspension, but I'm lazy and I don't want to. So basically that truck...
