I'm testing the GT40R turbo kit for PPE starting today. Runs good. Haven't got a chance to bury the pedal yet though. 70mph = 3-5PSI and 500-600 EGT. It's a water-cooled ball-bearing charger aimed at the towing/performance market. Although that won't stop me from scoping out it's race potential. Will schedule dyno ASAP, and try and visit the track.

For those waiting on the High Tech charger, those are in stock, on-the-shelf, complete kits now, just like the PPE GT40R kits. Finally!!! ):h

After the GT40R testing we will move up to testing something "more aggressive".

Choices are nice. ;)

When you and Kat run out of money....which is "not likely" anytime soon.

Its nice to see someone making a water-cooled turbo for the Dmax.

Yes, just nothing to tune with yet. RyanZ06 and I will both be getting the GT42R kits from PPE and are still waiting for EFI Live or HP to come out for LBZ.
