I assume you have on a smaller pulley..if you don't, that would help. I also recommend a Nelson tune..I see you have the Radix tune...the Nelson tune will definately help. Add the cam and maybe some Stage 3 6.0L or LS6 heads and you will be durn close to your goal.

He pretty much has the parts, just needs to find the time to put them on....I think he has the tune handled....You cant tune for boost through the mail.

Well, the reason I said Nelson was that in the CHP magazine, they put the Radix on the SS and were track testing it and then let PCMforless tune the truck(he was in the truck was tuning it too) with a smaller pulley and other mods on it and compared it to the Nelson tune and the difference in the two tunes was .01 second in the quarter mile. Not bad for not having the truck in front of you like PCMforless did!! That speaks well for his ability in my opinion.
