Its only a 57 wheel but with the advances in wheel design ect it flows like a 60.

Then there is always the S300. A new 62/14 can be had for $1600. Or a used one in good shape for $750 if you look around. I would go this route. For your head gasket a goot re-torque to 120 ft/lbs will be fine for you.

Please dont P-Pump it... Buy a 2nd gen if you want a p-pump.
i already got one.....96 model, i planned on retorquing my bolts for right now cause i dont see my truck getting to insane with the boost.....how much better are the Edge chargers over say a PDR HX35??? they are both about the same price.....

Here is a short before and after clip of the GDS 60 mm upgrade.

Just a stationary open turbo sound difference.

The edge turbo is sweet so far. I have yet to tow anything with it, but I can say for driving around it is worlds beyond the H1C with a 14cm banks exhuast housing it replaced. (if that means anything) Before when I stomp it from a 4th gear 35mph role (1400) and the black smoke roles. Now the sucker won't hardly smoke at all, lugging it or not, the BB spools quick. Now for the soot issue and BB??? Maybe, but I have been inside, fairbanks morse, MTU, Cat, cummins and Mann diesels that all had Ball bearings used in some application of the engine. I swear there is a ball bearing spinning inside the B series some where,maybe timing gears, p-pump for the 2nd gen trucks. There not turnin 50,000 rpm, but there used. Running 5w-40 mobil delvac I can let the truck idle, get the egt's down to below 300, shut the truck off, get out and walk in the house and the shaft still hasn't stopped spinning. The sucker turns freely lets put it that way. They put a 1 year no questions asked warranty on it, but it's only rated to like 450 HP. You plan on making more than that? Go with what ever you can get your hands on for the best price, and quality.

Puddle Pirate will be here tonight. Hes flying in from alaska today so I'll ask. I'm pretty sure it comes with a 4" HX40 DownPipe. Get you a 4" expandit exhaust form Luke at diesel dawgs for $315. Leave out the 3" downpipe it comes with and use teh 4" that comes with turbo. Thats what I'm in the middle of right now. I'm just gonna use a short section of flex hose I think to attch them. The exhaust looks real nice too!

Is kurt from GDS?

I think GDS is just getting rid of old inventory.

Talk to Luke about hos exhaust. I'm digging mine so far.
