Default dyno

Finally got a dynotune, well a partial I was having a lot of trouble with boost creep so he didn't dare push to hard on Dyno, I think its the cat and not letting the WG vent enough.

seems like it would have been cheaper and easier to swap in a lsx engine. I mean, they put them in it factory, so the swap can't be that bad and you could have got that number way easier.
Props for going your own way and putting on a turbo, but I never liked that I5all that much. I used to own a 3.5colorado and wasnt that impressed with mileage. No to mention they sound like *** at WOT. they have a nice growl down low, but up high, eh... not so much.

Default Finally got the turbo back

I upgraded to a 46 mm PT waste gate and relocated it and the boost creep is finally gone so Off to the dyno again soon. Heres pics of the original setup and the new one.
