Sweet.

BTW, I am in 1BDE too. I am at CNS.

Thanks for the insight. I hit em up on N54tech.com as well and one of the guys up in Denver had some really good points as well. Talking to Terry over there, he talks as if everything will be fine with the JB4.

However, the turbos are definitely working harder to make the same amount of boost, something to the effect of increasing by 3.5lbs at our altitude. So 12psi of boost requires the turbos to work as if they were putting out 15.5psi.

I am a turbo noob, my past experiences have always been with NA cars. This one is my first turbo.
