That is killer. You are making me seriously contemplate switching the Radix out for a turbo.

How are you controlling the boost right now? Just manually setting the wastegate or something?

Good to hear it's running well man.

After STS got it's CARB approval I ditched the nitrous idea and am going to stick the turbo on the small truck. Boost is just so much fun, especially when combine with lots of meth!

no control it just goes to about 18psi closed and 21psi open. i have a 8-14lb spring in there and i tried messing with the boost controler and there is no effect. i am about to go redo the lines so maybe it will work when i am done.

hey did you change your injectors lately i ask becouse with those big *** injector (95lbhr) they may be couseing some of your what sounds like valve train noise. just a thought have you put a Stethoscope to the valve covers or injectors. or a extension or something. to see where the noise is coming from. like i said just a thought on the noise.
