So i have been enjoying the truck alot lately. I still need to tweak a few things but it is running great at 11-12psi, even in this 105* weather....
I am planning on strapping it down on the dyno to get some baseline numbers prior to throwing more parts at it.... I think it will be around Oct, maybe Sept for some dyno time, due to the freaking heat around here....
So after some baseline numbers i plan to start the Stage II build...
I have been talking with Brian Tooley about some heads and porting... I think i have decided on a set of TFS 225 70cc heads.. Those heads will goto Brian for some tweaking. While there i plan to ship him the blower tub to port match and perhaps add his special sauce in other places on it.
I am also thinking about adding another spacer for a total of 1inch of space to help it breathe.....
A few other things i am tossing around doing.
1. 102mm ported blower snout
2. 102 TPIS TB
3. Bigger heat exchanger and possible pump upgrade....
4. after all of that i might need to upgrade to dual 3in exhaust...

Yeah i always had big plans for the truck that are constantly changing, i just never went there with the turbo since i never really honestly like how it drove so i wasn't gonna dump more money into it..
It is a long term plan, about 1 year...

Now that i finally got my belt issue figured out. The M081124HD was maxed out sooo i was able to get K081102HD to fit with plenty of room to drop pulley sizes. Sooooooo i ordered a 3.0 pulley!
Next i am still debating on what todo with ordering a set of heads.

Yeah i have a quote from Brian Tooley on a set of his modified TFS225s. I am just not sure about putting a gead that expensive on my stock motor. Definitely when/if i decide to buy a forged motor. But for now i am kinda thinking just some budget heads. I dunno. I am still thinking about it.
