Default Drove the truck empty today

Unloaded all the work stuff from the bed and went for a drive today. Holy**** this thing flies. With no weight in the back the tires will spin until I let off the gas. 1/2 throttle shifting from 1st-2nd barks the tires pretty good. WOT 1-2 breaks the tires loose. I have to let off to hook up again. Once it's tuned for the lower rpms, I can't imagine what it will be like with less lag. I'm almost afraid to up the boost to 8 lbs.
