Local dealership owned by a buddy. He ordered one, came in on Tuesday. We talked about making my truck the guinea pig, just might happen. Either way, will be in touch in the next few days regarding performance.

I wish they didn't have to revert back to the auxilary injector fueling method. It would have been good to see a supercharger application with 8 new injectors.

Why go with a supercharger when you can have a turbo for less? Doesn't the parasitic loss of power from the drive belts reduce efficency, when a turbo is just utilizing waste gases?

Yup, lb for lb of boost, the turbo make more power to the tires.

And I agree about the additional injectors. They didn't work well in the STS so we all switched to smt-6 and larger injectors in the engine.
