Thanks Mark!! I'm counting the days until I see yours run from 80-180 in about the same time mine goes to 120! Lol

Still a ways to go but it's starting to shape up...latest numbers are 623 rwhp and 726 rwtq at 18 psi. I'll keep ya'll posted but I think once I fix some of the bugs that are running around my set-up I'll be 800 across the board. At least that's what I'm shooting for.

Not yet...waiting to do that one for last and I hope it nets the biggest change in the power band. I vented my evac to the atmosphere and pulled out that PCV crap that was there. I did install a wideband and the AFR likes to hang out between 10.4 - 11.2 It's dipped into the high 9's on occasion but she seems pretty steady in the 10's.
Still need to fix the meth and A/R housing and some hot pipes...lotta pressure pre-turbo.

Make sure your wideband is after the turbo and not before it. Also, since you have the meth actually praying now, it will add a lot more fuel. Something I should help you lean out.

Meth isn't working yet...when I get around to fixing the meth I plan on pulling it out of it's current location and installing a tank inside the engine bay rather than where it is in the bed now. It's about 12-15 feet of hose that needs to be charged by a rather diminuative pump and I don't see it doing much good in that location. There's still lots of room in the engine bay.
I'm gonna post up the newest dyno graphs, there's still peaky but not as much. Need a new boost controller as the $6 chinese one that STS gave me is having a hard time at 18psi.
