Default Diablosport Predator

I bought a used Predator for my 04 Cummins. I also have a Quadzilla Boost Fooler and an adjustable Boost Elbow that I have never used. Should I install the boost fooler and boost elbow first and adjust it for how many?? pounds of boost? Isn't the stock turbo good for about 32 psi boost? What should I do? Also, should I update the Predator with the latest file?

boost fooler will help i have one. stock turbo is good for 48psi tops. mine blew at 58 psi. i installed a ajustable waste gate also but still only see 48 usable psi after that the air gets to hot and isnt worth it i would install the fooler and go from there the stock boost will hit 32 max so the couple pound boost works plus you can get more fuel into the motor means more soot

Thanks for the info. Not sure, but I don't think my turbo will put out the boost that your later model one does. My max boost is 24psi now.

just beware of egt's pred's run super hot, and watch how your truck is running too, it will probably surge, and the high idle when you have it in will eventually sound like a cammed gasser, thats not a good sign, when mine started doing that my #1 injector failed, not good.
