Set it up to run the wastegate manually.

Why would he want to go from a 230hp programer to a 100hp Juice box and if your seeing those numbers with the monitor you may be running more boost than that because it reads off the map sensor and it is only accurate to 38-40lbs of boost.

The stock turbo isn't going to be very efficient at anyting higher than 35psi anyway. Tell him to buy a new turbo if he wants 40+psi

You basically need a way to control the MAP sensor and there is nothing on the market that allows you to do just that. He basically needs a module of some sort? Our XZT stuff will get him to 40-44 psi and it is the most economical way that I currently know of. After thinking about all the downloaders out there maybe we should make something just for this?

marc03 if i added up all the HP gains of the products i have id have a much faster truck then i do now, you cant just say this chip+this chip+this intake+this exhaust will get you this much more horse. i doubt the edge with the ez, actaully know it wont, they you would have 520HP (most stock 3rd gens ive seen dyno 275 or so at the wheels) and you cant have 520HP with just stacked chips.

Obviously you need other mods to support the hp.He said why trade the crazy larry 230 for 100hp juice. All I was saying was the hot juice/ez stack would be about the same hp and would get the boost increase he was looking for.
