    Turbo Question

    I seen where they have came out with a direct bolt on S300 so you don’t have to get rid of your factory manifold.

    I’m running the raceme box tunes if I were to switch to this would it throw a check engine light or could I just run the same tunes, IDC about performance just reliability.

    It sure would through a CEL for you VGT turbo not communicating with the computer.

    That’s what I figured, I guess I’ll just keep what I have until it goes out.

    Plus getting kinda hard to find delete tuning nowadays with the EPA stuff going on.

    Right , they do have upgraded VGT turbos like fleece cheetah or BD screamer you can buy and still have the exhaust brake.

    Plus a little more power

    I've read and read and read and in these trucks it's all or nothing it seems.

    To go NON-VGT you can't maintain emissions, especially if you want to keep an exhaust brake.

    I think we're in the same boat of wanting increased reliability but not wanting to dismantle everything either.
