[/qb][/QUOTE]Freshen up + wicked wheel I already had the ported compressor housing, which I had to remove in order to pass smog when I sold the truck. Some how the smog tech noticed the purple powder coated housing and called my bluff that it wasn't stock. Advice: Make it *look* stock *enough* that they don't bat an eyelash. Smog tech was also baffled my 'tuned' truck huffed zero smoke. He mashed on the gas several times trying to get it to smoke. Not even a hint of black soot would come out. LOL [/qb][/QUOTE]Ok. That is what I am going with. What does the wicked wheel really do? Did you notice a difference in power and mpg? [/qb][/QUOTE]Wicked wheel is for compressor surge protection. Honestly I liked the stock wheel + ported compressor housing better, truck seemed to respond faster. I also ran the wicked wheel and stock compressor housing and thought that was the slowest response of the 3 setups. My stock wheel was 'peppered' from a previous owner running a shitty K&N filter. Wheel looked like it had been bead blasted so I wanted a new wheel. Cliff recommended the wicked wheel, so that's what we went with. Peak power on the Dyno was up over the stock wheel / ported housing, but I *felt* like the stock wheel / ported housing made boost faster, never could verify this, just seat of the pants.
