This is the first time I have used it for the times like this. It bases itself off of first movement of the vehicle and then however long it takes to get to the 1/4 mile distance. Assuming the tire diameter is close and there is no spinning of the tires it should be fairly close.

The custom tune is done and I should be getting a boost reading tonight. Then I am just waiting on Friday night for some time at the 1/4 mile track.

I'll be ordering injectors, pulley, & 2 bar map after we see what boost I am starting off with tonight. I'll pulley down to get to 8 PSI and then be done with it for a while.

Going to go with one of the Trick battery tray tanks as well. I'm not a fan of the look on the placement with the stock Whipple coolant tank.

Not sure the weather is going to allow any track time this weekend, but I found out my boost level finally.

With the stock supplied Whipple 3.625" pulley and on a stock L92 motor with 1-7/8" headers and Corsa catback I am seeing right at 6 PSI at WOT. Normal cruising and light acceleration it's at 3 PSI.

Sounds like a plan. I'll try for that this evening if it is not raining.

I'll try to get one with the scan guage too so we can compare against it.

Well, going to make my way back to the drag strip for the first time in 3 or more years.

Despite the scan gauge photos above, place your bets now on the results of the kit. Going to run with the heavy *** 22" wheels and tires and likely about 3/4 to 1/2 a tank of gas. Full street trim.

Truck is at 6PSI with the stock L92, GMPP intake, ARH 1-7/8" headers, Corsa Touring catback, custom tune.

Couldn't get better than a high 13.2 at 101 mph with a flared 3-4 shift . The tune needs some more work.

I think at 6 PSI, and some more things going my way along with stock wheels a 13.0 is within reach, but I don't see 12's happening without going to 8 PSI with this heavy truck. The RCSB trucks would be killer though with this setup I think.
