Those threads on here are BS. I've personally used it. It DOES NOT HIT BLOCK. Best bang for buck ever. Would easily bolt on again...

Ok thank you. But I do have a couple questions for you are how much hp did you gain and how much PSI was it and why so cheap?

It's cheap cause it's not genuine garrett...but it's just as good. The actuator is set at 7psi. I dyno'd it at Gluteus Motorsports, and it made well over 200.

10 psi should definitely make the trip much quicker.

^ 3psi and you made that? Must've been a gynojet. My dyno shows low. Btw OP...he means 13, not 3...lol. You can run up to 16 psi with that setup on your motor.
