At least your's is holding together and isn't going through a tranny every tank and a half.

I meant to say ... his truck does look nice. Very clean. It looks stock, but not really. It's one of those things things where you know something it different, but you just can't put your finger on it.

Wow, I have blower envy, and I already have a blower.

I like where you have the boost gauge - that's where mine's going.

Sorry ... I didn't mean to crush ya ... I thought it would have been ok since I gave you some positive re-enforcement along with it too.

I'm a fan of the SES light flashing in the first video.

Is it normal for the Super Charger not to make full boost in first gear? I noticed you didnt make it over 10 PSI until second?

it just depends how much under load it is. i was going slightly down hill at first,, so the truck wasnt under as much of a load. then it was flat in second. also,, with my stock 6 psi pully, ive seen as much as 9psi going up a steap hill in first. i dont understand it, but the more under load you are, the more boost you build up. at least with my setup anyways. strange huh.

oh yeah, ses light is the shiznit baby!
