Make sure you install a boost comp. these engines are sensitive to low AFRs. The boost comp will allow a tune for fuel delivery if set correctly.

Took the HZJ for a quick spin around the block... hard to notice and real difference at 25mph.I will drive the truck on my commute this week and see how things go.
Next I plan to do a 3" exhaust from the turbo back with an aeroturbine muffler. I will also be adding the EGT and Boost gauges and will be doing some tuning. I'm not tuning for max output... more for longevity, so the boost will remain low.
Beauty job on the install. That 90 deg drill is perfect for that spot.
You will not notice anything not touching the fuel.
I highly highly highly recommend you install a boost compensator to your fuel pump. You seem like a very mechanical person, this shouldn't be a hard thing for you to install and tune.
Best to have a pyrometer pre turbo and get an AFR gauge to tune. If you were to just turn up your fuel the off boost fuel would be too high causing a low AFR and risk hurting your Pistons.
Remember boost doesn't kill these engines fuel does. You could pump 25lbs no problem into the thing and it wouldn't hurt it. But the wrong AFR and high EGTs can kill your engine. You could run that thing 15lbs on the daily and it wouldn't hurt it.
It's worth your time and money to do it properly and safely the first time to avoid headaches.
Good job on the build
ISSPRO EV2 Series... I bought mine from Diesel Manor and I have the green backlighting. They work with 24v power.
ISSPRO EV2 Series.
I love my setup as I like seeing a gauge not just numbers like a digital read out.
The gauges are instant unlike the VDOs I have seen.

Still the quintessential overachiever, I see.....
I'm still hunting the box knife.
I can't wait to see gauge pod and intercooler....so hurry up!!
Why'd you opt for the block return instead of the pan, Sol?
It took me some time to find one for my turbo gauges, but I needed a brown one. Contact @joekatana, he can get the blue/grey ones.
