Please let me know if you believe I have unfairly skewed/biased any of the facts I have presented. I'm just trying to honestly share my experience.
I'm really hoping that my exhaust leak is amplifying what might otherwise be a very minor issue that really isn't deserving of a thread like this. But the reality is that what I am currently experiencing IS worthy of this thread.
Me too! Is it here yet?
Unfortunately, I will be installing the new pipe together with the Precision turbo (sorry, I just want to get it done; don't have the time/patience to do a two-stage install to limit variables). So if these driveablity issues disappear or greatly diminish after the install, it will be impossible to determine whether it was the new pipe or the different turbo that solved the problem. It will at least suggest that an exhaust leak could be the cause for some annoying driveability issues. Anyone else with similar complaints will at least have reason to check for exhaust leaks.
You and everyone else! I can't even tell you how many times I've heard that I need bigger tires. Mostly from my wife, children, and parents. My wife is a bit irritated that I spent money on a new turbo that was being saved up for tires. Tires and gears will now be further in the future. Realistically probably in 1-2 years. I still need to decide whether to wait longer to save up for TrueTrac LSD to get installed at the same time as the gears.
My current stock tire/gear combo is overall about 9.7% "taller" than what I'll probably end up with (3.73 gears and 33x12.5x15 Duratracs). That should be a pretty good increase in around-town pep and slow off-road performance when I finally make the switch.
