Well here you go guys. After working the past two weeks to try and get all the little bugs worked out we drove 2 hours tonight to hook this thing to the sled hoping I could actually see some kind results with a first full run.

As you can see in the video everything actually worked out this time and I did not any issues to end my run short.

I pulled exhibition only but they had me pull the same weight as the 8500lb diesel class which was all Dodges. The first place winner pulled 292ft and it was a hot crew cab dually that was hauled in on a trailer with weights hanging on the front end to weigh in at the 8500lb limit.

My weight bracket was not done yet so I weighed in at around 6400lb and I pulled 283ft.

We have been having issues with the fuel pressure dropping to 0psi so we made some changes on the setup last night. We also just got the Stealth HPOP put back in last night after doing a little tweaking there also. So there was still lots of air in the systems which you can tell in the video.

Anyways here is the video.

This may be a dumb question and get a few chuckles from the experts, but I'll ask anyway. Will one turbo feed the opposite side? Is there an advantage or disadvantage to doing this? looks like fun!

Sorry about my dumb question, I only read page one of the thread and didn't realize there was more before asking. Since both turbos appear to feed both sides, My question remains about the advantage or disadvantage of one side feeding only the other side.

ANYONE care to speculate?
