Nothing much new to report. Turbo kit is paid for. Ended up going with a huronspeed kit with their billet 7875. Trying to tune the ve table a bit to get driveability better, need some help with timing I think. It just feels like a slouch but I'm getting 3 degrees of knock in one certain spot. Definitely need to lower my whole timing map and start over with it. It ran so good with the factory cam.

Decided I should invest a little in myself as far as knowledge goes. I don't regret it, it's been a wealth of knowledge however there are things here and there that I felt were "off". Truck is running really well on a CLSD tune, now I just gotta tune the MAF back in while it's still NA. Hopefully starting my fuel rails and regulator tomorrow. Fingers crossed all of my o-rings come out okay lol.

Thanks man! It's a 20footer. The roof is faded, tailgate is scratched to hell, and front clip is a bit janky. It's a 4/6 drop on 275/40/20 20x9 wheels and an Elgin 220/224 cam. Sounds a bit different now with the idle raised and I've given it a good go at tuning it. Switching over to RTT Speed Density OS now, see if it makes life easier.

Well, anyone want to buy some idle time 1650cc Fuel injector connection injectors? I'm throwing in the towel on these and ordered some 127lb iniectors. I can't get the PWM low enough to make a streetable truck. The little 4.8 won't have it. I'll make someone a hell of a deal! Also, I got my VASFab shock relocation kit and my second 450 in. So hopefully my fuel cell will be here before too long!

Why did you go with such a large injector for only 500 RWHP?

80lbs injectors will go into the 700 RWHP range.
