In a 4-door truck, I think your right about the D1sc.....however in a rcsb I think 9's is certainly doable.

Your truck is gonna be a rocket.

Texas speed sells the extensions. The gto extensions worked for my truck. They were 2ft long which gave me plenty of wire when I had a flipped manifold setup

I only run a single oxygen sensor.. its a LC1 wideband in the down pipe..

been that way for 7 years now.

man i dont know i guess its possible but man i had a 3.5 on mine with a 10% over driven crank pulley and was hitting 22.7 psi i could of dropped a pulley size or so but i know it had to be close to being at its max rpm . all i could improve on was my 60ft (1.8x 60ft) but it seems like you got that down good and your et shows it but yours and my mph arent much different which tells me our power levels are probably really close to the same . do you think you can drop another half second with the d1 ? what pulley are you running on it?

lol nice ,i was talking to the guy i bought my turbo from and he said allot of guys just put all of the sensors in the down pipe . do you ever have a problem passing emissions ? i know up here all you got to do is pass one of the 3 test which are 02's sensors , oxegen heater , and evap ... currently im failing all :-(

I think another .5 could have been found on my setup. More motor and less weight. I was spinning the D1sc 106% of recommended max.

Damn, another good build going on!! As far as o2's go, unless your dead set on keeping all four, just keep the front two and bung them in the individual manifolds and then run a third one in the DP for the wideband. What manifolds are you using? Stock truck ones or different ones? Smokeshow used some CTS-V manifolds and they seemed to work pretty good.

yeah as of now just using the stock truck ones, it sems that the placement on the flanges aren't too bad and should be able to work with it pretty easily just will have to move the hard lines around off of the master cylinder it seems. so do you think it would be much differance in putting the sensors in the manifolds as appose to all in the down pipe ? on a side note hows your truck running ?you ever get some times out of it?

Sensor wise, decide how and who is tuning it first. After which you can deicide where you put the sensors if at all. You don't have to put them in the manifolds, you can put them on the crossovers or anywhere really prior to the merge just so that each bank is represented individually. But the placement and number of them has alot more to do with how you plan on tuning it.

My truck has been neglected for a while, it's sitting in a friends garage (I've been couch bummin it for about a year now looking to get into a new place/home so haven't had anywhere to work on my truck. Runs and drives fine just wnat to re-wire it so I plan on taking it all apart as soon as I get another place with a garage. I miss driving it but as soon as I find a place I'll be re-focusing on my truck!
