I ordered a set of turbos from dirtderrick, but without the core upgrade as i cant get ethanol up here.
Hoping to see similar numbers on a 94 tune.
550 would be awesome on pump gas!
This is absolutely the correct way and material to build a topper and I might snag one of these in a year or two, but right now im doing engine mods + lift
-turbos
-downpipes
-CAI
-intercooler
-fox 3.2 live lift
One thing that might be a nice addition would be PPF film on it, hardly any weight...
I can confirm after my first winter that K03 have a definite weakness on ice, it's quite jarring because they usually have pretty good grip...but on icy roads literally nothing,
I feelThe K02 on my 2007 ranger are better on ice to be honest

Never increase the cold temp weight (first number) you are asking for trouble
eg
if 10W-30 is spec
0W-30 is safe
5W-30 is safe
15W-30 is going to cause premature wear.
only gets worse from there.
Will it be catastrophic? Probably not. But most engine wear occurs on cold temp startup, so...
Congrats buddy
One small tip if you are looking for better mileage:
Use the adaptive cruise everywhere, it will feel a bit scary at first letting the truck control throttle in traffic, but it works well. just stay behind another vehicle when approaching traffic lights and it will stop you...

Do you have to recalibrate with FORScan for the extended range tank? Or does it still assume you got the stock tank.
was under the truck this morning, looking at all the blank space where they could’ve made the tank bigger I’m starting to think about doing this upgrade.
