Well Ron is a great guy to deal with and way helpful via email and phone...the instructions with the kit however, might be considered slightly vague in spots

Re: RP Caster Install
Updated photos...truck is now running pretty well at 6psi with new bearings in the snout and a 2.8 pulley. I still have a couple of small details to finish up when I get the time
2.8 pulley
AFE dry intake
Ultra gauge and Autometer boost/vacuum

Thanks...I wasn't to concerned with hiding the wire behind the a pillar since it tucks into the gauge pod...I might tidy it up at some point though
At idle with the AFE
took a quick driving vid...for an auto 4x4 with 265/75's it goes ok. Oddly enough it seems to pull hard around the 120km/h mark.
headed uphill

Re: RP Caster Install
This morning the truck was running fine, no boost issues. Went out tonight and I can't make boost...F*CK me.
So according to my autometer gauge I'm idling at just shy of 20inHg, and the idle is stable....so I'm guessing that I don't have a vacuum leak.
I'm thinking about putting it back to stock tomorrow....it's not worth the hassle...
Anyone interested in a RPI kit?

Re: RP Caster Install
If you put it back to stock and want to get rid of the kit, let me know. I am thinking of putting one in my 2007. So i may be interested in the fuel rail and such that you had to have made too. It may work on mine.

Re: RP Caster Install
well it's been a dead thread for awhile now...
update to my boost woes turned out to be the splines on the snout shaft wore down and the shaft wasn't turning the coupler. So I picked up another m90 and swapped in the new "used" shaft.
I also went back to the 3' pulley since it appears to be easier on the shaft than the 2.8.
Not sure if it's balance, weight, diameter or a combination of things, but the 3' pulley is way more stable. Might pick up a 2.9 and see how that works
