very nice!!! i love seeing product development like this for the truck stuff!!!

it would have been nice to see a v-band style wastegate flange since thats the direction a lot of them are going, but no major complaints at all from me!

Thanks guys. Yea the vband thing I did look at.
But it added a glitch to the machining.
But I think tial or eBay offers a 2 bolt to vband adaptor.

I personally don't see the 3 bolt flange as a downside. In that location I'd prefer it over the V band I think. Easier install.

Yeah^^ and the studs help. I hate bolts there, so anything that makes it one tool is great IMO.

Me too.

The flange is around 20.00 on eBay.
Also working on a 90' mount point to give more mounting options.

me too. LOL

It's been in the works for over a year. I had to do a huge amount of thinking, on this one. "do I want to spend this much coinage right now?". But I am always trying to make the product better. And I only deal with trucks, so it really came down to "do it".

Don't let anyone foolya, it is a HUGE investment for any compnay, especailly a small one like mine. But I am hear to support the truck guys that want to go fast and hve something a little differnt the other FI stuff that is out there. These will also help me get the kits to you the customers faster.
There are some other things on the books for our trucks, just takes time to bring to market.
New front mount Grill cores for all 99-2013 trucks.
Twin Kit, that one is still on the front burner.

Again thanks for all the kind words guys. I will post up some install pics soon. back to welding.
