Awesome pictures, I love this truck. IMO those wheels and tires really round the build off nicely.

Ok, fuel issue is no more! The stock inline filter that is bolted to the tank was a enormous restriction, and boy what a difference. Also fixed my boost compensator before the drive.... now it is fueling correctly while in boost. Now I need shrockworks to give me a call about my bumpers, so I can do my somewhat long trip.
no I pulled them and pressure tested them, the spray pattern was perfect on them so they didn't need it. My last resort was pulling the IP and rebuilding it, but lucky for me it was just 1 filter I should have took off in the beginning. I tell you what... it has been a long and complicated journey to get there... SO WHO IS NEXT!
A little update:
I went though a tank of fuel, from fill up to fill up with speed correction I got 28.5mpg with mixed city (60%) and highway (40%) miles. This was with a heavy foot, and I am over fueling slightly, and need to adjust the boost pressure up a little.
Power wise... It is a slug with no adjustments. It does merge fine on the highway, and does do 70mph fine. After 75 not so much.
Shrockworks has my front bumper done, but still waiting for the rear to come back from powder coating. My order is going to be a week late.. but I am still glad they were able to expedite my order. After I pick up and install I will get some pics going and get some new pics up..... once those are up.. it doesn't get anymore finished than that
Lack of HP... Are there any other options in regards to boost, etc., that you can apply from the aftermarket?
This is really cool what you've done - mad skillz! Props
thanks guys, now I am waiting on the SC radiator and a new water pump (need a new fan clutch, but it is one piece with the water pump). Conroe to austin is 3 hrs, and austin to S.A. is about 1.5 hrs i think.
