Electronic 3 stage Boost controller you nit wit!!

What's the driveability issue of cal-tracks or 4-link on a D-Driver?
You could always lift the front end so you have a backwards rake so their's less weight transfer when that horrible +150lbs "hits".

Anyway the engine torque is supplied threw the input shaft and distributed equally to both output shafts. The rear output shaft connects to the rearend like a traditional vehicle. The output shaft facing forward is connected to a axle at the front, that still allows the wheels to rotate from left to right. Anyway, like I said kinda hard to explain......
I tried that on my unicycle and it didn't work as well as you'd think!

Do you still plan to tow anything with it? If not the ladder bar option would be interesting to see.

The torque can be controlled by less boost or less timing, I would like to keep the same torque I have now and put it down if at all possible. It's probably not going to happen with the tires I have now, so either new tires will do the trick or a ladder bar may help a little bit. I don't do any towing with the truck.

The speed referenced boost controller would by far be the best way to fix these issues. I am trying to avoid any additional electronics and wiring at this point. I'll keep all these things in mind, thank you guys for the ideas.
