[QUOTE="blacksmoke.r.us, post: 1513859, member: 5336"] I had a 364.5sxe and it was very laggy at elevation towing or unloaded. The guy I sold it to is local and he has to lock out 6th on the highway. If he doesn't he says the truck will be hunting for gears and smoking out the interstate. He's on 37's and has 3.55s so that might contribute. Although I did make 750 rwhp with it and a dual fueler, it was not practical for me the way I use my truck. It was fun to drive though. Then I tried a the smaller 363sxe and it was still too laggy for my taste. Both turbos had the bigger 74 turbine so maybe the 68 would help at elevation, but I dont know all I can say is what I have experience with. Both setups felt like a 2 stroke, all top end. The power thoughout the rpm range wasn't there. The higher in elevation I got the more rpm I needed to spool the turbo. At around 10000' I'd had to be at 2200 rpm to start spooling the 364.5 and the 363 wasn't that much better. I live at 7500' and tow on regular basis from 2500' to 10000'. At the lower elevations the truck ran great with both setups. Spooled fast and made good mid range power but when you get past 6500' the truck had a lot less usable rpm. I now have a 15+ vgt and it has a broader power band. Not as good as the sst but very comparable. Although it makes a lot less power than the prevoiusly mentioned turbos it still makes more than the sst and has enough power to tow anyting I want. If I could do it all over again I would've left my truck stock besides the basic d e l e t e s. I would've never blew my trans and spent countless hours wrencing on my new truck. I spent almost 20k including the newest setup. Hell for what I wasted I could've had a pretty good start to a real hot rod. Take it for what it is this is my experience with non vgt's and I am not trying to discredit anybody else and their experience. The non vgt's just dont suit my needs or expectations that I have for my truck. [/QUOTE]
