Meth location isn't super critical, but I aim for about 1ft before the TB.

You can drill and tap the compressor housing or anywhere before the IC really.

The kit and customer service from trick performance is great!

Tuning is a PITA. I am working on getting the meth kit installed so I can get the boost cranked up and hopefully get rid of the knock. Just busy at work and its going to be a while. I did mount the tank this afternoon but thats it so far. Also still contemplating hp tuners but cant decide if i will actually learn to use it.

Pm Atomic about tuning, he's been great and very helpful. He's very knowledgeable and I haven't had any problems with tuning. If problems do arise it's on my side, and he quickly solves them. I had a bad exhaust leak at my downpipe and a bad wideband o2 sensor that I didn't know about, well, he was able to see that just by looking at a cold start log I sent him.

I finally have the money to buy hp tuner pro but have one question. My wideband uses my obd2 port. Can you run 2 things off the obd at the same time? I see they make splitters just not sure if that is how it works. Guessing I need the wide band when I start tuning. If I cant run my dashlogic and hp at the same time I might have to come up with a different wideband.

What wideband do you have? HPT pro has dedicated inputs for stuff like the wideband. Even with the standard HPT you can log a wideband through ecm parameters like EGR position or ac pressure (any 5v input).

Can buy a splitter; make sure it specifies 16 pin.

Just here to add my humble shoutout to Trick Performance...I don't have my own fancy build thread and I'm terrible about documenting progress but I've been running my truck daily for a couple weeks now with his stage 3 kit and a Precision 76/75 and am very happy with everything, great components, great fit, finish and great customer service from the small amount I talked to Rick. Highly recommended!

I have decided to go with EFI live since that is what BBP uses and they do not lock there tunes so I can make changes to what I already have. They will also give me a discount.
