Thanks man, been driving it around all weekend, put 125 miles on it so far

Even though I ordered the 4-7psi adjustable gate I am pretty sure I was sent the 8-12psi spring because with the adjustment screw all the way out it boosts to 8psi and holds there. I kept my eye on the wideband as it got up to 8psi and its plenty fat and feels great.

I spoke with the ebay seller who sells the gates and he is shipping me the 4-7psi spring this week. 8psi feels great but in order to get some WOT logging done I need to step the boost down because the tires just wont hold. So for now I just cruise and hit boost at 40% throttle and it stays around 6psi, love how loud the spool and BOV are.

I couldn't be happier with the setup and it was worth every late night spent in the garage.

More mods in the coming months
-80e swap
-Built driveshaft w/ safety loop (yes paranoid)
-New rims/ drag radial (Thinking something along the lines of 17's with a fat DR in the rear. As much as I like the look of 20's its probably not the best for performance)
- Once all the above is done, step up the boost 10, 12psi?

Stay tuned...

 

Hey what pioneer head unit is that?

 

Avic 700bt, Its an older model I bought a few years back, despite a few little quirks because of it being outdated, not bad for an in dash nav that only ran me $450 when I bought it.

 

Nicely done, good lookin ride.

 

Thanks, I knew I recognized the name and the sig confirmed it. I started out on s10 forum years ago with a bagged xtreme that later turned into a failed turbo project with syclone manifolds. Was back on s10forum the beginning of this year with another xtreme and syclone manifolds again for round two and ditched the truck when I bought the 2500 daily. I followed your build the second time around.

Youthful impatience was a bitch

Third time's a charm though

 

This inspires me to start looking at a fullsize someday. It would be nice to be under the hood of something that had room.

Lord help me when the six gets replaced with a snailed V8.

 

fun aint it

 

I hear you, I had the whole passengers side to do what I pleased, only things there were the AC lines.

I love it Cant wait to make some changes and get the power to the ground, The spool whistle and BOV are suuuper loud, already been chased by two subarus and a vw

 

Hopefully going tomorrow to pick up an 80e. out of an 02 truck, GM goodwrench unit with 30k on the clock. Comes with the stock converter, flex plate, dipstick/tube and inspection cover.

Will post pics when/if I get it home

 

I come here daily just to hear the turbo whistle
