Default 14.2 @ 96 mph

Went to the track. Best pass of the night was the 14.2. Had a 2.0 60 foot time leaving the spinning all 4. Boost gauge was showing 9 psi in fist and 9.5-10 psi in second and 3rd.


I've ordered a new wastegate spring so I can turn it up. Fuel wise its still way to rich. Showed 10.0 on the entire pass.

Over all I'm happy not to bad for 9k lbs lol. Now if I could get it on a diet of about 4500 lbs it might be fast

96 mph is great for 9000 lb! There will be a big difference between 10:1 and 11.5:1.
I just can't understand how another pickup truck can weigh 4000 pounds more than mine. I mean seriously, that is like the weight of almost ten engines!
