It's going on the dyno next Tuesday. I know I'll be biting my nails. We're running pretty low timing since we have all the pressure we need. All this because it's still stock internals. I'll tell ya though, It will still rip the tires off a 50+. They're 18.5" wide.

That reminds me of the story Pat told about when he was first testing the modded HTT turbo and he was coming up an on-ramp. Got up to 70mph, punched it and the truck went sideways boiling smoke from the rear tires!!!

It was mentioned over at DP that you guys were having lag issues. Guess ya cant believe everything you read on the internet.

I'm sure you know pulling 60psi isnt a problem, but adding enough fuel to keep up with the 60psi will be. If he hasnt done the internals yet then he needs to get ready to see a window without curtains on the right side of that block somewhere around the #8 cylinder.
