    Almost 4x the power of the turbo taco

    That's disgustingly interesting

    First and foremost the truck is awesome. So more power to you. And you have some awesome product which I’ve said before. The problem is you’ve been saying the same thing to us 2nd gen guys for well over year and actually longer than that. Id still be buyer of your product. But sooner or later either you are or aren’t gonna get product made, either way most second gen guys just want a straight forward answer that’s it.

    Yeah 2nd gen’s are definitely overdue. No doubt about that. I’ve actually had the molds done for months now... but the circuit board(dome light specifically) Had some hiccups in development. It’s finally back on track though so you should see some results soon:)

    Ok real question. Can I smash some 37s without going long travel? Because I was going 35 but, it’s like why not.

    What’s the wheel specs? I was thinking SCS -10 but wasn’t sure if that’s enough offset since most have the LT. Maybe -38 set?

    All the things!
    Since no one is asking the important questions here, where did you get that steering wheel from?

    Are you running into any issues mocking up the fmic or anything else while installing the turbo kit ? I have a bumper with winch and I'm hoping it fits.

    Yes, many things needed to be modified or removed. Although I’m doing more of a custom setup from what OV is releasing. (Using most his parts though)
    Do you have a TT kit ordered?


    Haven’t updated this thread in a while...

    finding a spot for my BLow off valve. I wanted it pointing out the hood scoop. At least it would finally serve a function?

    Best way I'd describe it is it gets pretty squirrely when I get 315/70/17s felt like I was on rails with total chaos +2 now is night and day

    With the bigger side wall of the 37s I have noticed my truck being a tiny bit more squirrely, and they definitely don’t balance as well as the 35s. But other than sidewall deflection being slightly more, I’d be surprised if it’s the fact that it’s 37s vs 35s causing a significantly noticeable increase in squirrelyness
