    Nice, I guess i missed that. Does it seem to be running well on that set up so far? Do you get a dip in AFR's at higher boost?
    Your set up came out so nice!

    I havent driven it more than around the block lol. I'm thinking of extending the piping off of the front of the turbo and getting the filter out of the engine bay since it's so tight there.

    Decided I'm gonna vband the muffler on. Picked up this one on Amazon. Really nice for the price, paid more than double for the one on the downpipe and it didnt even come with a quick release clamp.

    So I've been hesitant to do a full pull on the truck cuz I havent been able to get my gauges to work. Both brand new AEM gauges, boost and wideband. I thought my wiring was bad so I ended up wiring them up to individual relays. Still no readings. Reached out to AEM customer service and turns out BOTH BRAND NEW GAUGES were bad. Soooooo frustrating. But the good news is they're both being replaced. Not super happy about it but I'm glad they're standing behind their products, good or bad, and getting the situation fixed. Here's a video of what the wideband was doing
