sounds good.

remember oil is cheap, motors are expensive. Flushing the system with new oil is cheaper than replacing the engine

Yep. I ran 5 quarts through the oil drain line to flush any crap out. Will change the oil after i make sure everything is good.

Im going to start with 10 psi. My tuner is confident he can safly get me 550 hp but i dont want that much right now shooting for 450-500hp.

It was pretty hard driving it around the block knowing all that power was there but not able to use it yet. Only problems i have so far is cross over leaking cant get it to stop. I had to slap the exhaust system together quickly so the tuner can have it so im guessing from downpipe back will have a few leaks to.

550 is a bit much for a stock engine.

At 8 psi on a bone stock truck I made 416/444 on one dyno and 402/460 on another. Average them out to 407/451. I have consistently seen 21 hp gain per PSI. So my butt dyno math would say your 450 hp goal is reasonable. Could be more or less depending on how hard your tuner wants to lean on it.

Having any exhaust leak pre turbo is bad. After isnt but is annoying to hear.

Unless you plan on boosting to 29.x psi, you only need a 2bar. You can get them from Amazon the fastest if you have a Prime membership.
