I don't know if I would install them or build display stands for them. They look good! As does the truck
Right? Thanks man, beautiful truck deserves beautiful turbos. I just wish they were top mount or something so they could be seen better.

They’re installed. Started datalogging today. Some interesting results for sure. They are much louder and the turbines are louder too. Very happy, can’t wait till the truck is dialed.

Lol
That's even more proof. You don't know.

You unbox turbos and post pictures.
The next post, literally hours later, they are installed.

Impressive :)
Lol, well, can you say I was excited?

I did the install in 6 hours. Started at 6 am and finished at 12pm. Then I had to clean up all the tools etc and start the truck, datalog etc, but the install was 6 hours.

I wish I could get 6 consecutive hours to sleep, let alone work on my truck!
 
dude, dude, I'm jealous!

Little turbo install tip.

Hook up the oil drain line first, then pour some new motor oil into the inlet on the top of the turbo core and fill it up full. It protects agains potential damage to the shaft and bearings. But I suppose if you make sure to flood the truck before you start it that would also work. I did both.

Oh, and I forgot to post this pic.

Here’s a log with the stage 4s on the Unleashed tune. This is just a base tune that Torrie made.

Yellow is boost, brown is wastegate duty, and army green is rpm.

Right where the boost is the highest is 13.48psi

At the highest peak of rpm (5000rpm) boost is only 6.5psi.

Very conservative right now for sure. You can see as rpm increased, boost decreased, and the wastegate increased. It was opening wider and wider all the way to redline.

Little update, on my way to work I gave her a little throttle (more than a little) and it pumped out 31lb/min with 11-12 psi. On my stock turbos it took 19 psi to have 31lb/min and on the stage 2s it took 16 psi. Pretty amazing. Wonder what they’ll do with 21 or 22 psi.

Yeah well apparently I didn’t actually see boost. When it was reaching peak airflow it was only at 10 psi or so. But today it had more than that even. It did almost 34 lb/min with only like 12 psi. It’s a monster. The top end pulls hard, and we still have a ton of wastegate. Literally 40-50 percent

WOT boost is like 9.5 psi right now, and I’m getting 32-33 lb/min. That’s just nuts.
 
What is the lag like?

Relative to stock?
To Stage 2’s?

Lag is slightly more than stock. It’s quite responsive though. I am very impressed. CRPs rotating assembly is built to be quick spooling since it’s so lightweight.

The stage4s might be slightly more lag than the stage 2s but I honestly can’t even tell. They seem to almost have better low end flow than the stage 2s.
