Very nice...are you seeing any KR in your tune at those boost levels? Are you just running 93 gas? I think you said a while back that you had the Suncoast stage III or IV i cant remember.....but i think thats my next MOD...i need to protect the Ally!

Truck sounds sweet, fix the REP code and get a tune in her and go hunting!!

Very nice, that's some huge power at that boost level and that cubic inch. Did you get to save any parts from the last truck to use on this one?

We only have 91 oct around here. It has 6.5deg of timing in right now but do get some false KR. I'm workin on getting a meth kit then we can get the tuned nailed down.

Zippy half of this turbo kit came off my old truck. I already swapped in the trans and the engine is setting in storage. When the stocker lets go, I'll swap it in!
