I just got tuned at Danville today and am at 427 hp and 852 tq on stock trans with transgo and she shifts great... Marks a great guy and I averaged 21.5mpg hand calculated on the way home :thumb: I couldn't be happier with the tunes or the turbo!

I seriously hate you right now. You get to drive your truck and got it tuned in person. lucky mother fer'
But nice numbers sir
You'll get to use the turbo to its more full potential with a trans
... But yes I am lucky I'm as close as I am it was worth the 600 miles round trip to get to meet the crew at danville performance and get a spin on the dyno
There's my sheet and here's a little video of messing around in the driveway lol

Oh and one quick pic of the turbo after it was powder coated

Thanks Mark yours sure does too!! I enjoyed talking with you and learned a bunch keep doing what your doing!
650 easily atainable and somewhat safe... He said my pulse width wasn't bad at all and my stock indjectors and pump would be just fine at that level... Another thing we talked about was the Pistons in the lbz and he wasn't worried about them we also talked about egts and timming and everything made good sense he defiantly knows what he's doing! If he's not worried about 600-650 hp I trust him and I won't be either :thumb:
I'm seeing on average 620-650hp on stock sticks and pump if without holding great rail pressure on the big tune. My streetrace tune on a stock charger usually makes 445hp and bolting this turbo on is an instant 50hp increase on that same tune. I can't express it enough how much I love this turbo and how it performs on all aspects. It does everything it should and then some with no loose of drivability. I think it might be the best Vgt turbo ever made for a dmax(except LML's cause their software sucks!).
Thanks for telling your side I'd hate to steer anyone wrong! It's hard to express how much I enjoyed myself down there yesterday thanks again Mark
Edit here's a video of one of the dyno runs for all who's interested

When it comes time for me to upgrade the turbo on the LBZ in the Camaro, this is definitely the one I'm getting.
I wonder how the 68 sounds in terms of loudness to a comparable cheetah

Took this video today with my phone ... Not the best sound quality but you can tell at 1250 rpms it'll make your ears bleed lol

No wonder you guys put your stock mufflers back in with a cutout

This is my freshly installed stg2R just driving up and down the road around 1/4 - 1/3 throttle on stock charger tuning. It will down at ATP for a retune on Monday and I will try to get some better videos! I also think I might have to get a muffler so the neighbors don't round up a lynch mob :roflmao:
I gave up on trying to embed this video...

I wonder how much twin turbos would quiet this thing down. Or an aftermarket muffler. I'm sorry but I wouldn't run one of these without some way of quieting it down. That whistle is obnoxious and annoying.
It appears to work well, and I would love to try one but no way would I put up with that amount of noise.
