Thanks!

A quick update, being that the design of this kit puts the turbos down low, we are using a scavenge pump to feed the oil back into the engine. Based on our research and experience, the TurboWerx Exa-pump was our choice to be up to the task for doing this. The exhaust fabrication is nearing completion, and we expect it to be finished by the week's end. A few pics of the oil return set up from underneath:

Very nicely done as usual. Can't wait to see how it launches with 4WD.

289 stock 4x4. I am already impressed w these new combos.

We need more pics Mike! So you dynoed it stock, creating a true bolt on twin turbo kit and re dynoing the stock truck plus your kit for us? So anyone of us thinking about buying this Kit from you would experience similar gains and power.

I can't wait for the video
