I hope so I haven't got that far yet. It really sounds good at higher idle and the let off to hear the turbo wastegate blow off. Seems like I have a set back every time I turn around. This morning I noticed that I haven"t put mud flaps on and that is part of inspection on a one ton pickup in Texas. I like the look but just forgot about them.

PM your snail mail address to me, and I'll send one of my extras to you. We F350 guys are the minority here, got to take care of each other.
