Sorry to hear. Sometimes this hobby just frustrates you too much.

a few things... the track is not a true track but a strait away of a local road course. Some claim the track is up hill, and the times are giving by a port-a-tree. not exactly what I'd call true times. I'd trust my g-tech of those times, but it is a great place to go and try **** out before you make the 160 mile drive down to sac..

As for times.... start digging up phone numbers for the fbi...

Yea it is sad, but the thought of getting a truck more suited to haul the kid(s) off camping makes me happier.... (plus a street bike to die on, mmmm)
BUT until the turbo goes the truck will continue on it's way to 10's...
SO what did you thing of the sub 4000 power band?

It is rather weird. It's like you created a 2 stroke.

hopefully the advance will help, plus I've been toying with the idea of a two step (to help the turbo sell, lol) I figure if 5 pounds of boost at the launch is good, 10-12 will be better....

I hope you haven't sold it buy Oct 10 so you can come the west coast GTG thing . I think I know a way you could get better spool out of it if you didn't have a divided manifold.

I wonder what would happen with something as simple as a ls6 cam.

Mostlikelly a much better result, but I would really like this cam to work, if I had the money a new cam would be on it's way.
Kyle, what are you thinking? The turbo itself spools just fine. This no power down low showed it's ugly head way back with the STS kit, I thought it was partualy caused by the high exhaust pressure of the rear mount..... Hind site I bet the exhaust pressure was actually helping hold the charge in the cylinders better. The front mount just made it worse
