    you dont have to change anything. The motor uses a map sensor instead of a MAF so if the boost gets vented to atmosphere before the throttle blade it doesnt effect engine mixture or performance. ( well cept that your boost just went poof, but you know how a BOV works. )

    So going to try and jack up the truck and get the broken u bolt off so I can get a new one and also remount the shocks.

    And twin. the biggest issue I am having with the AUTO ecu is that it acts funny when i shift because it thinks there is a torque converter. The lean spike at 4500 seems to just be something to do with 440cc injectors and higher boost. I have not got anything in the shape of a form about it tho. Everything I heard was by word of mouth. Ill see if I still have the PM about it on Club NA-T tho. I may have deleted it. In reality tho if you dont have the issue with the auto ecu then stay with it. I got my manual one for like $20 more then the auto so just went ahead and did it.


    Thanks for all the support guys!

    Got the BOV, Exhaust Wrap and Turbo blanket in today. Like what I got and can not wait to get everything installed. The truck is still down due to no auto store around having the right sized U bolt so got one coming in the mail.

    I have not mounted the blanket yet so ill get back to you on that. And I ordered it all from treadstone performance. Here is the link for both the wrap and blanket. The blanket is spendy tho. This is also the place I ordered my turbo from. And if you go for a watercooled turbo they got the only waterline kit i have ever found.

    How big do you want to go with the brakes?

    I've had big brakes for a while now and love them. I recently changed over from the 4x4 toyota calipers to the Wilwood Dynalites. I will soon have some more machined caliper stands to sell to adapt them to the stock mounts.

    I have been looking at a 13 inch rotor. The breaks get fade so fast cuz of the extra weight.
