For gauges I want to run a wide band, fuel pressure, oil pressure, and a interceptor obd2 thing with a trans temp option and water temp. I'm going to use lightning dash cluster and put one of those boost overlays whel I go up to 12 pounds of boost.

Thanks for the heads up on the LFP pulley. I'm going to get a +2 and a +4.

Yeah man no problem! A 170 or 160 thermostat might do you good in that high heat climate too! Talk with tour tuner first tho.

Nice truck and goodies! Enjoy Guam! A lot of guys from my office spent about a month there doing energy audits for the millitary bases. I got stuck in Hawaii for a month at Pearl Harbor..

Well I just scored a fuel pump off of LR! So things are still coming together slowly. I also just bought a sct xcal 3 new for cheap too. So when the time comes I'll have JJ start emailing me the tunes.

I think I am going to find a stock blower for cheap and try and rebuild the bent one. That way I have a back up. I know where I can get a snout for a decent price but for that price I might be able to find a complete blower. I can't wait to get the valance PTM'Ed! Your truck looks great! Ever since I've seen yours, ive wanted to copy your truck with some other modifications of course! When I first saw your truck back when I joined the forum I was like yup that's almost exactly what I want! Can't stress enough how bad *** your truck looks!
