No I didn't dyno it before the turbo. And none since the first one. It's a bit of a drive, and with the price of the runs, its like a $150 trip. So I try to keep those to a minimum. Will dyno again with the meth kit though.

Just working with bigger injectors right now. These NNBS fuel pumps, even the non-e85 ones seem to be pretty powerful. I won't push it much further with the 5.3. 408 will get a pair of walbros.

Yeah its still running lol, I drive it every day. Switching over to turbo only next week though. Blower is too small. Wouldn't be as big of an issue if it was easy to swap pullies but since its a roush blower....turbo only is just easier

Yeah I am getting rid of the blower. I'd need at least a TVS2300 to be of any use, and pullied down at that. Thats quite a bit of $$$, and just selling the blower is paying for the swap to a front mount

thats pretty cool, should be nice since you already have the driveshaft and trans for it. im more of a s/c guy because i would like the instant torque and that i am lifted, but i wouldnt mind a turbo and getting into that boost to pass people on highways haha.
