Idle hit I could feel the lag....gets to about 10MPH before the tires break loose...really weird feeling to have traction, lose it, and get it back without shifting at all.
now THAT is good to hear... lol

Not directed at anyone in particular, just at this thread in general.


That is exactly why I posted the video, information.

One of my friends trucks with only a 2600 stall, stock LQ9, and a D1SC was able to get 60' times in the low 1.7's spinning (even being awd) launching off idle. Tuning is also a huge deal with the STS. With more timing in the right area you can make the turbo spool quite a bit quicker and keep the lag down. GM left alot on the table for that with how the timing table is designed. Just like with the Procharger, the STS kit set up right and tuned in right is a street warrior.
I was only at 5psi with the procharger.

hijack over.
