    Some additional mods are in order to make it all work with the winch control, body lift and bumper.

    Some more pics of the process, I have had to really think about how to make things work with some of my previous mods.

    I'm hoping I can still run my snorkel since I don't have wheel liners. I'll post some videos once I get it all together and dialed in.

    Possibly maybe kinda-sorta considering this...

    My 2.7 is starting to feel pretty anemic; even more so when I fab up a bed rack and RTT...

    Intrigued to see your thoughts on whether or not it's a worthy improvement...

    Happen to recall what you're into it for?

    ~$5k??

    Looking at the dyno, it basically turns your I-4 into a V6. The stock V6 dyno URD has up puts it at 207 hp and 252 ftlbs of torque at the wheels.

    Test drive was awesome, had to tighten up some fittings afterwards but the truck has a lot more power. I have to work tomorrow but plan on trying to finish up all the loose ends the next couple evenings. Its been a long 2 days my buddies Josh and Jose' were awesome to help me out in the evenings after they got off work.

    So I was able to take a few more drives and check out the truck last night. When I got home I made adjustments to a few things and did a short drive then came home and checked everything again installed the grill and bumper (only with a few bolts) as I need make a new mount for the winch control. Here are more pics from Tues of the install.

    Josh wiring up the ECM I'm glad I had help on this, I hate wiring stuff although we were surprised at how few connections he had to make.

    A shot from last night, I want a different grill now guess I'll be getting in touch with Homertaco.:popcorn:

    So the S/C is awesome. I still have some more work to do over the next few days getting the glove box and wires all tucked away as well as building a mount for the winch and securing all the stuff under the hood more permanently. I have about 30 hrs. in on the install right now.
