i see 4-5psi before i even move, 10+psi a split second later.
EXACTLY! It's easy to build boost off the line.

well back on topic, how much for the upgrade to the gt67? How hard is the install and how detailed are the instructions? I am guessing that this will work with a 4 wheel drive?

totally, kinda hard to stall it up for a hard launch in a 2wd truck.

wouldn't you need a bigger fuel pump for this combo to be safe? Since it comes with 42lb injectors.

the stock injectors are good for just a little over 300rwhp. the stuck fuel pump is good for around 450rwhp.

injectors are required but at only 5psi a pump isn't. turn it up at all and you would want a pump.

The install really isn't too bad and the instructions are pretty detailed. I would say if you are mechanically inclined you could install the kit within a day to a day and a half.

It does work with 4-wheel drive.

As Parish said, at 5 lbs. the stock fuel pump and 42 lb. injectors will be fine but at any more than 5-6 lbs. i would recommend a pump.

A GT-42 or GT-67 would require a different flange, however for example you could use a GT-40/67 and it would be a about a $500 upgrade.

Thank you

-Rick
