The turbo spools extremely fast.The truck gains 300hp/300tq in 1krpm which kicks the rollers and unloads them.When it unloads the boost pressure drops from the lack of load. On the street it holds 12-14lbs the whole time,no problem except the tires spinning.

Dez's car is a Supercharger which doesn't unload.

the bill? yeah, i don't wanna talk about it.

Thank you again Don for bailling me out of that mess. you da man.

I'm pretty sure wifey and baby are driving me down there on Saturday. you know she's gonna make me go to the friggin mall with her while we're down there.

I am scared to death to get it back. It almost doesn't seem real. I've been driving the Ranger for so long i'm not sure i'm gonna be able to handle that big bitch, especially with about 300hp more than it had the last time i drove it.

We should have a "dan's getting his truck back party" on Saturday at Dez. lol
