this is my first time to the track after the turbo 1/8 Mile 9.78@77mph, i only ran it once, the place was so crowded. its got STS turbo w/intercooler, cam and LTs, please tell me what yout think. im not satisfied with this time.

I'd say something is off. Post more info like engine size, cam, and 60fts. who's your tuner?

 

What motor?Who does your tuning?

 

Yea we need more information....

 

i don't have the time slip, i lost it. the engine is 4.8,5 Speed, 220/220 cam, Pacesetter LTs, STS Turbo 5psi, its still just a mail order tune by Nelson, he told me to come to San Antonio to get a live tune but i still didnt go there. by the way, there is no boost in 1st gear until it reaches 5000 RPM but it build at 3000 RPM in other gears.

 

Sounds kindof strange... but i bet it pulls good when it does build boost??

I can reach 5.5psi at 2300rpms in OD with the converter locked... but i do have the 6L...

 

I Ran 9.0 1/8th Mile With A 5.3 Single Cab With Only K&n Exhaust And Hypercrap Havent Gone To That Track Now With The Tune

WELL AFTER WATCHING THE VID THATS THE TRACK I RAN AT ITS DOWN THE STREET FROM THE HOUSE

 

its very strange. i bet when i go to Nelson he may figure it out, do u think so?

 

The manual trans is killing you very badly, you cant load the turbo before you leave the line and you lose alot of boost during the shifts with the dump truck transmission. Also that cam is pretty larger for a 4.8 so I bet coming out of the hole is slow. Your trap speed shows you are making good hp you just arent getting out of the hole worth a crap. I ran a 8.9@78 with a 1.9 60ft a long time ago on a 100 shot and the stock 5.3 with Allens tune, dual exhaust and a 3K stall.

 

the cam isnt big
they actually recommended that size its a 220/220, they told me its the best size for this turbo, it pulls real good after 3000 RPM in 2nd and 3rd is better
