razor the edges

been driving it everyday, i have to have 300+ miles on it already, my tires are completely bald after the first day and a half, i've been taking it easy for now so i keep my license and figure out all the small stuff, i added heater lines a while back not sure if i mentioned it though
weighed the truck today and its 3500 without me in it and full tank so 3700 with me, a full 1k lighter than coreys work truck

also bled brakes finally, i can brake stand 3k, on smooth oily concrete with wasted tires so that is promising for sure for a great launch

it drives amazing, have to play with the trans settings some more but really enjoying this thing been driving it everywhere and not worrying about it one bit

dropped off transmissions with it and all what a truck

its an AEM 12 position trim pot
you can get it on summit, amazon etc for approx 20-30 dollars its a 0-5v input dial.

i have it setup to directly drive the boost solenoid, or target whatever you want to do with it really

I have some clearance issues and have wondered about using window screen for turbo. do you think it is a noticable restriction?

I did back to back dynos with it on vs off... not enough difference to worry about. ~7hp is worth not sucking stuff in.

Hey Matt, first off awesome build. I see in the video that the factory gauges looked like they were working right? I just ordered the MS3 Gold for my setup but have an Escalade that I did an ON3 turbo and was wondering how difficult is it to integrate the factory accessories, power windows door locks etc (I know they run off the BCM which communicates with the PCM and matches up) or is it just wire the outputs from the MS box to the dash inputs and let the BCM work by itself? Can't wait to get the box and have it in, looks like a super nice piece and from reading all of your threads/builds I suspect I will be ordering more for the next project.
