Congratulations guys!!!!
Congratulations guys!!!!
Allen knows how to tune these trucks right up. 
Looking forward to getting these next sets done and out to market.Since Allen has the A2A IC covered we are starting the mock ups and looking at the other turbos placement and plubming lay out.

allen finished up the turbo kit only days ago, but the noise level is very low you can hear the turbo and the wastegate, but it is not loud at all and is actually a little quieter than the STS on allens truck. the turbo spools very easily, around 1800 it is at 5psi with the stock converter,(actually have gotten 6psi a couple of times). so far it is an awsome kit, and i plan to work the hell out of it so feel free to ask any questions.

The hot parts are obviously stainless, but for now, there are no plans to make the intercooler plumbing from ss. Mild steel coated or aluminum will work out great.
Trick has an a2w intercooler in testing.
There is very little noise, a real sleeper. If one was wanting more noise, simply instsall a 3" electric cutout on the down pipe.
thanks,
allen
