Engine is stock minus injectors. Using a air to water inter cooler and some slicks.

Hopefully next time out I can give it a little hit of the bottle to get its 4100 lb *** moving and spool faster its scary trapping 91 MPH and it roll almost all the way through first before it builds boost

Stock, minus injectors? Dude... I bet a 3.5/3.7 in a single cab would roll. You've got me interested. Are you having good luck with keeping the AFR and all on point?

So far so good. Needs bigger injectors though. Or base pressure turned up to 80 psi haha

A buddy let me borrow his go pro a while back so i went out for a little bit making some videos. i thought this little snippet was fun so i wanted to share. hopefully i have enough little videos for a nice compilation later. need some racing vids first

anyway ignore the 2 step like sound in first. i have been doing some tuning changes to see if i can spool it faster in 1st. it grabs 3rd in the video by time i lifted and the speedo fell back down i was in the 80-85 mph range

enjoy!

Think you could build me a manifold for a 2.8?

If you could, I'd probably buy one. To me, an Atlas w/ turbo is more impressive in a Colorado, than an LSX w/ gas. No one would expect your truck to do a 12.50.

...If you can really get ahold of a 2.8 to make a manifold off of, PM me and I'll probably buy one. It'd be a good project for me.

OK will do. I need to make sure I can get a flange first. I have a couple people asking for a 4cyl one.

In the mean time just hit it with the 250 shot lol
