The 408 had a lot more bottom end, as expected, but that also has a lot to do with my cam choice as well, 218 230 on the 408 and 236 230 with this one. The top end is pretty crazy. I had tuning experience with a blower before the 408 but I've never tuned a turbo before so I'm taking it slower, but once I put in more than 4 degrees of timing on the big end its going to be nasty even so 120 comes pretty quickly.

80e impressions are, "Damn these gears last forever", and I like it much better than the 60e so far

I like my 80e for that reason as well.
I was just thinking that your cam is very similar to my old one......then

The gearing change in the trans will also effect your bottom end power. I don't think it will be much at all but in adition to the cam it all adds up.

heres a quick vid from a dead stop, boost hovered around 10lbs and timing was around 12 degrees, af around 11.6, shifts are around 6600.

The combination of a smallish stall, big duration cam, big turbo, and higher first gear of the 80e means I no longer have any traction issues, which is nice. Once the turbo gets going this thing is nukkin futs!

Open downpipe as well, damn thing sounds like a race car
