Me too! I still yell at the TV, my wife laughs at me...

Should have it all back together this week and tuned. Need to replace master cylinder now, it's eating brake fluid apparently. Is this a common failure an boosted trucks or am I just lucky...

She back! Nastier than ever! I did what was needed to push it up and over 500rwhp with 105 lbs per corner, imagine what it's going to do once I lighten up the wheel and tire combo and up the boost. I'm only at 10lbs right now with zero heat issues...

Hows the trans holding up so far? I hadn't noticed but have you swapped out converters

That's great man, must be a blast and a whole new beast to drive.
What valve train and cam did you go with? Was it all spec'd by BTR?
I'm mostly looking forward to the off-road transformation. What wheel/tire package are you going with to lighten up the load?
What is the full spec on your suspension that you're going with?

Trans is just tuned and it's holding great! Had the belt jump off on me during a boosted 4wheel drive launch so need to figure that out! Luckily, motor didn't get over 260 and I got the belt back on and cooled it off in less than 3 minutes on the side of the road. That was fun...

Im going to buy a coil over conversion from Atomic and his shock relocation for rear. It's coming down from the heights bc it not exactly safe at its power level that high anymore. I'll bring it down and inch or so and go with race star 20's with proxies for DD and but a set of 16" steelies for so drag slicks for out back, I'm afraid of 4x4 lauches at track bc it will hook up and break. Now, it just blows thru all 4 mud terrains in auto 4 at 50 mph... Lol... It's a freaking riot to drive...

Jay at Mayhem Motorsports is a crook he got all the parts and tuned the truck, those guys are total pieces of **** in my book, not fast, lol, but they are very good at taking your money and not giving you what you ask for...

I love it! Do 4wd with limiting straps and I can't see it breaking.
