Hahaha, no doubt, Nova sounds like a beast! Yup, I do go to Kennedale here and there. I need to go again sometime, it's been a bit. Once I get it going I might take it down the track and see how she does lol.

I thought about intercooling but I am trying to make those turbo's spool as fast as I can. From my previous builds I have noticed the less charge pipe the quicker it spools. Annnnd I will be running the good old corn sauce e85. Good stuff

that makes sense on seeing boost faster because there's significantly less air volume to compress without an IC & all the piping. i just ain't seen nobody run that much pressure without intercooling it before - gas or E85

Lol, I appreciate it! I am really digging the "I'm flippin broke and pissed off look the truck has" haha. I got alot more done the past couple of nights.

Checked off the list..

AN -4 Turbo Lines are all done 100%
Intake is now on for the last time
'03 Tahoe Gas Pedal with TAC Module (I swear GM knew I was putting this in, I'll post up some sweet info on this)
Shifter is in (woohoo, just gotta weld up the shovel handle)
2001 F-Body radiator is in for the final time

On this list tonight..

Finishing up wiring (harness has been done, just wrapping and positioning)
Finishing up Wideband install

Plan on having this crazy thing running this weekend, atleast fired up.

Will post more pics and videos!
