I wouldnt worry about the manifold right now, or the water meth. only do those if the EGT's start getting out of controll.

I'm not familiar with the turbo you have and the flow rates so I dont know how well it will cool when your in the throttle.
Im not sure what the acual flow rate is on my turbo. But I do know that with my mods and my Edge on levle 6+5 I can pin it for as long as I want and my EGT's won't get out of hand

Extreamly FAST!!! It can start building boost right off idle.

the smarty sure makes a lot of torque, can the edge be stacked with it ?. I am scheduled for a south bend clutch in 2 weeks, have not heard of the one you are using. how much torque will it hold ? how much foot presure does it take ?

I know that there are alot of people staking them. I am just kind of wary about stacking. Something just doesnt seem right about it to me. I may try it later on down the road. I dont rember the specks on my clutch. But it was varry reasonabley priced and seems to work and hold really well. ValAir's business is making clutches for Big Rigs and they do performance clutches for our rigs on the side. I figured if they can stay in bussiness making clutches for 18-wheelers they should be able to make a good clutch for our rigs no problim.

My last clutch was rated to hold over 800 Ft Lbs at the wheeles. I was making it slip in 3rd, 4th, & 5th on power leavls 4,5,&6 on the edge just by rolling in to it. Not droping the clutch or anything. And no it wasnt worn out. It had less thatn 10k miles on it.

Black Cloud we all want more power.
The question is
How deep are your pockets and how mechanically inclined you are?
Your truckalready has a lot of engine mods , may I suggest that
you look into some gears to help put the power you already haveto the road.
