i installed my pyro today. took it for a test drive to see how high the egt would get under high load. in 4th gear on a long steady incline, the egt was only 1050, shifted into 5th and the egt dropped back to 850. looks like i might be able to turn a flat or 2 more and still be safe. next...

the air filter appears clean( still white).

well ive had my truck for about 2 months now. the dark black smoke is steadily getting worse. its to the point that drivers behind me will back way off to stay out of my cloud. i have had people tell me that the fuel is turned to far up or the turbo is bad. i dont know where to start. i...
