Installed a wicked wheel

[dcapita]

the other day. HOLY SH!T, what a pain in the ass!! Getting the clamp off the up pipe had me at about a 9 on the frusration scale. The turbo was also tuff to get out of the engine bay. Done now though, thank god. It sounds friggin awsome. Couldn't believe how loud it made the turbo whistle. I haven't pulled anything with it yet but the surge seems to be gone during standard driving. So far I am very pleased.

I did mine with the turbo on the truck. It took Justin (Police Stroker) and I 3.5 hours and we were moving SLOW and taking our time. I WD-40'd the clamp on the down pipe the night before and it popped right off. The sounds is worth whatever effort required though

I'll agree that up pipe clamp was a real bugger but it's lifting the assembly up off the pedestal straight and re-installing it without wasting the ped O-rings. I did our's solo in about 6 hours with many rounds from my kids asking "what ya doin dad??"
Would I do it again? Heck yes,the benefits are worth the time doing
Our wicked wheel has been on for more than 4 years now,next major upgrade the BB turbo and fuel return system

I know Garrett at Pure Diesel carries this performance wheel

Your turbo should be sounding off with the Tymar in place there Trae,but it's nothing close to a BB turbo.

I agree it shoudl, but I can BARELY hear it till I floor it and still its quiet..

When we go to budro's Ill let you drive it and see for your self its a odd truck I tell ya!
