Took me a while to figure out why my last truck had no driveshaft issues at any speed, it was a 2 piece shaft. aka 2 shorter shafts.

Friday I'm going to the track to get time slips. Today thought I'd make a video with the boost gauge in the shot. Can't wait to get some time slips.

Truck runs real good! Would hand my 6.2 a royal butt kicking!
Still on stock manifolds?

Thanks. Stock manifolds and cats. I did the 3rd cat delete when I did my custom cat-back exhaust.

truck moves out for sure! will be very interested in the track times....any plans for a dyno tune? Maybe its just the nature of the converter but there seems to be a hesitation around 4k in 1st gear?

Thanks! Will have the times posted tomorrow evening. No dyno tune plans yet, and I think its the TC kicking in a little even with it off to help offset the wheel spin I'm getting at the launch.

Turbo would be nice for sure but I have to say I'm pretty happy with the ProCharger so far.
