No but that was a tune that smoked . Mick's boost would drop to under 20 after a shift and well, that's the smoke. When boost falls to 10 or 15 like that at the end of his video, the smoke would really boil.... Fun fun.

No, no aggressive tunes are gonna be ran remember this is a stock engine that has already hit some pretty good mile stones. We are being conservative at least to our standards until such time as a new engine is built and ready to drop in. Then maybe we will hit the aggressive side. But yes, we will have a few vids out of the higher hp runs on the dyno, just want be practical being stock and all. Heck, Mick has put a really nice setup together a few times and broke everything but the engine. Just crossing fingers while still being competitive.

I'll let Mick answer the one about the power. I will say you ain't seen nothin yet . Way more power this way. That video is a couple of weeks old and was taken during the time we were dealing with surge and well the boost gauge wire and boost sensor wire being mistakingly swapped around. Try it some time, it sucks...... Anyway, No plans to try a turbo again on Micks truck. But, 3 superchargers is not out of the question. If we can mount and run them that is.

As far as the dyno, Mick makes the call. As far as how far to push it, there again Mick makes the call. I give him what he wants and let me tell you he wants a lot but has a good head on his shoulders also. Reality hit us in the face when we started breaking parts. Breaking the transmission shafts helped us regroup. Oh well, day by day. We hit over 800hp and thought we were taking baby steps then boom, Mick had to call the tow truck cause he broke the trans. We never got to dyno that tune.......he was racing some car on the street on the way to the dyno.

wow mick you crazy son of a gun.


3 is going to be hard to fit, jeez, and you had enough problems with getting 2 on there.

and no thanks, im good i have other issues to deal with than a surge.

what would be conservative tuning i just know max power . i tried a few tunes before, but i got to many issues right now.

I found out how to make it sound like it has a huge cam in the tuck by accident efi mistake woops

Time will tell, still a lot of work to be done....... Oh and No Turbo's and all custom. Completely custom minus the actual chargers and innercooling setup. Tuning is also completely custom and will probably be a one of a kind tune in the end.
