man, I hate it for you. but running in the heat is not smart imo. wait for cooler temps, and try it again. truck should not bogg on any shot. are you purging it? do you have a wideband?

This, except you get max vacuum when the engine is decelerating back to idle, so youll have brakes on the way down, not the way up.

....or just get rid of that silly mess and switch to hydroboost.

no purge yet, tryin to stay hidden as much as possible

yea i have a wideband but i had an exhaust leak that was causing it to read funny, today i got my y pipe welded up and cutout put on.....i still think i need to do a recalibration since its still actin a little funny.

a purge will help alot, cause it will get the air out, and if you dont purge, it will load up with fuel, and bog the truck down. re cal the wide band, and get you a $50 purge kit, and hide it along with your other noids. I ran 1/4" air bag line out to one side of my cowl(drivers) and drilled a whole and found a gromet that would fit the line, so I would not have to use the aluminum line that came with the harris purge kit. nice and hidden. I got my purge for $39 plus shipping on harris's ebay page. but you can find a used one cheap. helps out more than you think.
