For some reason it stopped whistling and blows more smoke.

Little update I guess. I bypassed the boost controller and ran a line from my pressure source straight to the wastegate and seems to be more responsive and builds boost easier just cruising around. Don't know about wot boost difference yet. This weekend Im going to Los the race tune and drive around to geg the trans to relearn an then ill see what it does.

What did you have it gated to? And why have the gate even open on fuel only? Is the back pressure out of line?

Well I planned on spraying it at some point this year but I doubt I do that until the motor is built. So sense I'm sticking to fuel only I ran the line directly to the top of the gate to keep it closed. No back pressure issues, it was mainly for spray. What do you mean gate too?

48ish it was weird because wot the boost gauge would pounce 3-5 lbs but it i just eased into it would hold steady at 48 at 3/4 throttle.

Loaded the race tune.... And it's crazy the difference between the two. Shifts are better and power obviously went up. Surprisingly very easy to drive and also egts seem to be lower. Saw just over 50lbs so picked up a little bit. Now Friday needs to hurry up so I can see what it'll do.

What's your best pass as of now?

On the street tune 12.50 in the 1/4 with soft 60 and blowing thru the converter. But went a 7.72 in the 1/8 at rudys which is very low 12s in the quarter. Friday will be the first time in the race tune.

Nice man. I'm getting a twisted stage 3 here in a bit. My best is 8.1. I'm going to make one of these hollyrock events I'd like to see you hit 11s on fuel.

Yea I've heard nothing but good things with them. That would sweet we also have the big rig nationals event June 28th. Hopefully I'm in the 11s Friday I can't stand the wait now.
