Plus, it has larger tires and added weight.

This kit is about to go on a rcsb with a 6L swap, ls6cam, 80eswap, t76, 10+psi, right JJ,

we'll keep you updated,

Thats right Allen, and don't forget the intake setup, after I get some new numbers I'll try to blow this think to make way for the 4??.

It's available now! I'd say with a 62-1, you'll see about 15-16psi.

Hell ya! The truck you are running is leaving at 5lbs of boost and you said somwhere it was leaving at the full boost. Is this because it is turned down for the motors sake? I love what I'm seeing with this kit. I WILL be buying a front mount turbo in the spring and just trying to find out a little info before I make the purches. Thanks

We only have the truck at 5psi because that is what most customers are going to run the kit at for a long time. It's too easy to turn the boost up and get good times, doing this on 5psi says a lot.
Yes, we want to turn it up, hahah, I'm sure it will haul ***, very soon!

thanks and we'll keep you updated,

No doubt that 1/4 times look great, I would just love to find the kit that will do it for me with 11" of lift and 36". Its a hard task but can you hear the guy in the camaro/mustang now when he gets smoked.
