triple disc from Vig. 10.5". Its the loosest stall code for that diameter, but will still drive great.
We dont normally try and shoot for the highest number and put them on the edge. Ted has a nice, new truck and I'm sure is not eager to put an engine in yet. We stay on the conservative side in favor of a great driving truck that is not on the edge just to get a number.
When he wants to push it, we will. In the mean time, an extra 150rwhp on demand should put a smile on his face, especially hearing the noise the turbo makes.

Billy and Dustin did mine and I have to say that he has the best install that I have ever seen. It is VERY clean! I have not had one problem with mine and he has always been helpful. Haven't put mine on the dyno but when Allen did the street tune it was making close to 600hp at the crank on HPT in 95F heat.
Good luck with the truck!

This was on a stock engine and drive train, not other mods except injectors and boosta-pump.

I realize that I am probably giving up some power and throttle response, but still went with this for a few reasons. Talked to Allen about the front mount a while back. He was great, but I am much closer to TRT and they do great work also. I'll have it back in a week and will post the times before and after for 1/8 mi in two or three weeks. Later, maybe the 1/4, but no before times. Some of the mods from Bone Stock RCSB '07 Classic Z71 5.3 4l60: STS 67 w. fmic, wrap, '02-'04 ZO6 cam, Patriot dual springs, pushrods, Walbro, Dustins tune, transgo, vette servo, Vig 3000, blah, blah, blah. I know I'm forgetting some things, but thats the major stuff. Wish me luck, all you guys have inspired me with all your fine *** rides! I am so exited, it's gonna be a tough week waiting on it. Hope it beats my 'Vette after I get it sorted out. We'll see!
