Just for the reccord


6mm long
4.6mm Diameter

And depending on which pill the center hole changes sizes. If anyone has a stock pill they can messure the size for of the center hole. .. it would be a great help. Thanks

Most people who know me say I should be on pills ;)

I have one that I was able to turn on a friend's lathe. I broke my drill bit in the process, though.

I dunno. LOL. I've never seen one, the reason I'm asking for pics. I wouldn't go through the trouble of tryign to get it out (I have a stock one in there if I needed a pic that bad I could take mine out). But thanks for the offer anyways. The post was more or less for someone who had the stocker sitting around (easy access). :D

kinda OT,

I'm an advocate of the GM BCS, hook it up in interupt mode w/o the pill & retune your boost maps to compensate & poof better boost response & boost control.

~$15 for just the BCS, another ~$17 or so for the pigtail that not necessary but does make for a clean install. I've been running one for well over a year.

how come in the 'topic review' during a reply the posts are on there twice...?
