sledpuller 66 upgrade from surging killerb

Well i got this thing installed tonight pretty good time since i just got it yesterday. I tried to shorten the stroke on the wastegate for some well needed extra boost. 1 1/2 turns was the number to get to 55 lbs. I did that and i haven't got it there yet i got it to about 43 at first. I'm babying it for a week to see if it holds up. No surging no fluttering it's awesome I used to have to hesitate always with the killer b under acceleration or it would begin to surge badly. Now i can just let her rip and I think it's a good product. Of course i said the same about the killer b when it was installed. We'll see how this thing holds up to the pressure. It changed the sound of the rig too, I'm pretty happy. If someone has the killer b with the issue of surging i would say that this is a better route to go and virtually eliminates surge for the time being. If it changes i'll be sure to let u guys know. Once again hats off to paul and the guys at htt. great guys they work with you no matter what going above and beyond the normal ethics of customer service. He's been right there with me through the first turbo, then the new cartridge and now this turbo all within a couple months and he's made it right by me every single time. It's good to have people on your side that keep their word and do what they say.

ps. the turbo is a little bit more lagy but of course it's bigger. When it hits it's much stronger then the killer b.

hope this helps some folks
