I installed my pyro pre-turbo(powerstorker). I thought about post turbo because of the broken probe hype. I couldn't find anyone who had this happen to them. So I went pre-turbo for more accurate readings. The install was very easy. I don't weld so I drilled and tapped the exhaust manifold. I left the truck running while I drilled it because I read it helps to force any metal shavings out instead of letting them fall in the pipe then sending them through the turb when you start it up. I don't know how big of deal it is or again if it's just hype. I drilled mine with the correct size bit, no pilot drilling, to keep shavings to a minimum. I dipped the bit in grease to try to collect any shavings.
For the boost gauge I just tapped into the MAP sensor line with a "T" rather than tapping the intercooler manifold.
I didn't install the trans temp since mine is a manual.
All in all an easy project, with more detail work to make it look good than technical work.
I easily hit 1200 pre turbo and 18 psi boost when loaded with camper and boat or Jeep . My truck is bone stock and I can sure tell where the pcm limits the boost. It climbs very quickly to 18 then just stops there. Hmmm...chip time?
