I know that the GT40 is a type of turbo but since you didn't just say Garett 40, I wasn't sure.
Wow, you know that its a 61mm turbo! 61x80mm to be exact.

I've helped build a few Grand Nationals which were using Garett turbos. Just remember as much as you think you memorized the Tuner Magazine talking about turbo this and turbo that, you're still the guy who said his 4.6L is faster than the 5.4L!
Besides if you want to get really technical, Garett in all reality makes quite a few different versions of the "GT40" turbo. God, I almost want to post this in the GD forum so those guys down there could get a laugh.

And how did the dealer "turn up" the factory reflash? Sure he wasnt talking about the radio?

yeah ok.... really your too slow to understand you dont know what your talking about and got owned on trying to call someone out on driving a as you call "fast" car. seriously i would give up now because i think i pretty much know what im talking about when it comes to installing my turbo, and know what my truck has done as far as being lined up against
