Any other changes to the truck other than the turbo, catback and gears?
You would need 10 psi of boost to get to 379 rwhp if you started with 225 rwhp and didn't change anything else. Of course if the truck was already making 260 rwhp before the turbo - then the math would work out right also. Either way it sounds like the truck should FLY!!!!

As far as I know, those were the only mods. As I mentioned, we didn't get to baseline to truck, but other 5.3L trucks I've seen it the past made around around 225 stock.

Hey Rick

6.5-7psi is with the stock everything on the kit right? I was thinking it was 5psi but, if it's 6.5-7 that'll work.

He has the same kit as you, he just added a $10 manual boost controller.

So what are you trying to say, I'm cheap because I don't have a $10 manual boost controller.
