I was wondering who got the kit. You could try tilting the I/C to hide it.

I tried to tilt it, it's too thick. Hit the mounting tabs for the bumper.

I dont know much about turbo sizing but could you only be seeing 5psi because you have more cubes that TurboGibbs has? Or is that turbo more than big enough to feed a 408ci some big boost?

It should be plenty. I don't have a boost controller on it, so right now it will just boost to wherever the wastegate spring is set to.

You may pick up some more when the tune gets dialed in.

Wow, didn't take you long to get the systems switched over and running on your truck. All my projects seem to take years to complete. I am impressed!
