    You need to start carrying vibrant brand parts are your work man. Expensive just to adapt a new turbo.

    just go to your local welding supply store and get the smallest tank they offer. It's worth it (it's not even that expensive) once you start playing with your shocks! And then you can be that guy that everyone in the OC goes to for fillups :cookiemonster: :bananadead:

    My girl simple. She know I can’t get her titanium, but at least some good looking stainless and aluminum. But man adds up to 500 or more bucks in small parts. 500 to make 400 hp isn’t too bad.

    Mine is a 2k build too if you include the new turbo and wastegate. I don't think I'm sleeper in anyway though.

    It's definitely a rabbit hole. I can only focus my time on one major project. I keep the car pretty mellow and comfortable, but the truck gets every crazy idea I come up with. Trying to max out this fuel controller. 4x the power of stock with a $500 little computer. Most people give up and go straight to a 2k standalone ecu. The company that makes my piggyback replied to my email was like wow very few do what I do tuning wise with a simple controller.

    Nice. You wheel pretty hard now compared to when you first got the icons. Plus maintenance wise it is a lot easier to work with the resi than the dumb floating piston inside the shock body.
