Hi people im new to this site lots and lots of good info here, i really like seeing everyones info on things and setups. I have a 2013 ext cab 4x4 6.2 sierra doing a front mount turbo setup next month, question i have for you is what plugs should i be running with that setup and what gap. I was thinking tr6's but still not sure on gap. Any help and info you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

Awesome!! thanks I see your truck is really close to what i wanna build is your truck a 2wd? Also are you running any type of torq man. Making power is easy but its getting the trans to hold it is another story?

Thats great news i was kinda wondering what the limit was on that or if i needed to upgrade to the zr1 maf. I'm glad you jumped in both of you guys are pushing the limits of these trucks and i'd like to find out what to do and not to do. My turbo setup will be different from everybody elses...not over the counter bought but end result should be close to the same. I'v already installed my 85ib injectors so the turbo will be next probably ready to put the knife to it next month. What about flex/fuel pump what are the limits on that? I plan on running e85 with my setup? Another thing is torq management are you guys leaving it on, turning it off?? Any problems so far?

Im testing the flex pump this time too. Hope it will do ok with 93 pump gas. It was good at 600rwhp. torq management is off but still playing with it.
