Default BD Boost Builder

OK so Santa's final present arrived this week & his little helper got it all plugged in on Wed. I was feeling like poo yesterday and hung out in bed....so this morning was my first chance to play with the truck

With the new intake the truck had more pick up. But w/ the boost builder plugged in the turbo spools quicker and holds longer (go ahead Sharx have fun with that one...quote it all you want...and no I will not post pics for you to play with). Noticed the turbo picking up closer to 1500 RMP than the 1800 it used to.

The on-ramp I use in the morning; I didn't step on it (really I didn't...same pedal usage as always...maybe that is why the mileage sucks when I drive ) or anything normally I'm around 45-50 when I hit the bottom. This morning I was over 70 .

Ohhh I don't want to be at work...I wannnnnaaa go play!!!!

I wish I had boost gauges so I could tell ya exact PSI's but they are on the list still. hmm rack of gauges or just break out and get a box?? hmmm

have fun w/ that! i had that on the top of my christmas list along with the S&B intake that you ALSO got, and everyone came up short i know you wrote about your intake somewhere else but now that you have had it for a bit, you think its worth the money or are you thinking the stock box would of been good with the money spend on somthing else.... thanks frogGer

I was reading that the boost fooler makes 40 psi rather than the stock 32 psi on a 05 to 07 truck. According to my edge i am already making 39 psi. If i added to boost fooler would that build to much boost for the stock turbo. Also, does the boost fooler build boost at a lower rpm and is it detectable by the dealership if removed. Thanks
