Talked with the tuner again today just to let him know that everything's working well and I couldn't be happier. He tells me that the tune is super safe. Wants to add a couple
More degrees when be comes back into town next. Says it'll really wake the truck up. I will try and schedule a dyno run the same day so I can see what she's really putting down.
On a side note, I didn't listen to anyone I talked to and vented my wastegate to atmosphere... If you ever have the option to.. DONT lol run it back into the exhaust. That jet plane noise was cool maybe 3-4 times. After that I realized I couldn't hear anything else haha going to get that fixed in the next week. And maybe I can actually hear my turbo and bov then

I'm also looking into converters now. It's just becoming difficult to pick one with out knowing how the cam I want is going to drive and rev like.
Anyone have any ideas what/where i should be looking to narrow it down?

I figured I could do it all at one time and get it tuned at once for the trans and cam... Is that the way it's usually done? I figured with the cam and turbo on a stock converter would be too much and it wouldn't be right on the dyno. Will it ruin the converter doing that? Or can I run the stock converter for a little while untill the new piece gets shipped to me? I'm only looking at the isky triple 12 or the tu0 cam. Nothing crazy.

Something doesn't make sense. It should not open at all before boost. What spring do u have in the gate and what max psi do u see? Mine starts to open about 2-3 psi before max boost is met.
