[QUOTE="Six_Sloww, post: 1023386, member: 13248"] That about sums it up.. The truck is a monster once it's lit, but smokey until then. Also the truck is pretty fun on the street, but the huge downside is I'm locked up in OD by 45 mph, so once that happens if I'm not completely lit the fun is over. I can delay the shift with t/h a little but it still locks up too early for the street.. I know I can play with the tuning but I can't help but notice that most people that make a track truck usually drop to a numerically lower gear rather than the other way around. I think I may have a drive pressure leak, and I know the stock up pipes and egr cooler are holding me back. As far as the A/R on the turbo I actually don't know, if I had to guess its likely just comes on a box stock s366.. That's one of those little details I won't know until I tear into the truck. I won't be changing gears until after all the lag issues are solved, I have a feeling that once this truck is running properly I'll be trapping close to redline in 5th (technically 6th) I'm just trying to educate myself on how to properly gear a truck that will see a lot of track time, especially because racing on the street isn't my thing.
