I had a 4 link on my typhoon and I never got it dailed in right. Good luck with it. I think something was wrong with mine, I did not like it.
Did you installed the 4-link youself or a shop, Im trying to look for a performance shop to do mine but theres none near by, also do you have the offroad y-pipe its a nice part, it lost about 2psi, it still has some leaks I need to look for. Good luck with your truck.

I had a shop here in San Francisco do it. They were telling me that I wouldn't like the 4 link, but I said that everyone swares that the 4 link is the best. I told them to put it on anyway. I didn't like it. I think they did something wrong. I was taking the truck back to have it adjusted and a lady totaled out the truck, insurance cashed me out! I have the stock y pipe, whitch off road pipe are you talking about?

My best has been 1.8, I think it should be better, the y-pipe its the one from jegs, catless and mendrel bend, its a nice part for under $200, Allen installed it for me.

I think I found a shop here in texas for the 4-link, I'll talk to them and see what they say.

Oh! Ok, I have the stock y-pipe with the cats hollowed out. Not bad on the 60. Good luck on the truck!

This is in Edinburg race track.
Im not understanding what you are asking. It looks to me like you are just having a hell of a time putting all that power to the ground. Your truck is the lightest configuration and that 6.0 spools that 67 pretty well. With a 3200 stall you could probably step up to a 70mm with little problem. Your current setup is exactly what Im doing with mine. Once I get it tuned and running, I plan on stepping up to a little larger turbo. The truck is sick though man. Youve definately got a setup that would easily get you into the 11's.
