Awesome. In for results. I would also love a detailed write up on the "ABS disable" switches.

Sure, why not?

Also, I wanted to mention something else. We also did a DOD delete on this truck while still using the stock cam, and everything is completely fine. Someone on here brought it to my attention that it can not be done and there is a thread on here about it not working, not sure about what the problem was the guy had, but we just did it on this truck with no issues. We will be swapping to a custom vvt blower cam soon.

Went 2.2 seconds and 16 mph faster from the ARH headers, Whipple with 7 psi and meth, caltrac traction bars, I didnt use the electric cut out because I don't think it is worth any power at this stage anyway, so this was done with the stock catback exhaust also. 2 more pullies to test, plus we have to do the 102mm throttle body as well, and more to come.

That's impressive. Are you going to pulley it down any with the current setup??

I bet with some tweaking and fiddling around you could pull off a 12.99 with that current setup.


edit.
I see you posted how much boost you were seeing.. I am blind. thanks for answering it again for me
