Last year I left the line at about 5-6 lbs of boost. The tires would either hook ok or they would break loose. I think that once I get a good posi in there I will be able to hook. I take off pritty violent myself and they seem to do ok.

Well I got it back on Thursday and its SLOW!!!! But thats ok seeing as how it is a N/A 8.3:1 4.8L. The truck actually feels pritty strong for what it is right now. Don has the shift points set every low. We are talking crusing at 40 in overdrive and then there is no real downshifting going on. Don says I have to get 1000 mile on it before the turbo goes on. Right now I am only at 370 miles It sucks because I can only drive it on the weekends because I am at school Monday through thursday. At this rate I wont have that turbo on there till the end of June

Great to here that she is up and running again!! The quickest way to miles on it is a nice road trip so pack your bags and drive that thing down here to North Carolina!!! Good luck,
Sam
