What's with the boost creep? Your WG not functioning proper or too small?

maybe BOV opening and cycling the WG? maybe diaphragm failing.

i have never had any kind of WG issue. its about the only thing i can count on lol.

We'll, GTO has a toasted rod bearing, so I am taking the LS3 out of the camaro and putting it in the gto while it is still a good factory shortblock. The GTo ported LS6 heads will go on it and I need to spec out a 4X cam.

So... started tearing down the camaro (first time touching the car since the dyno). Upon tear down I see that I had 5 burnt plug wires out of 8! No wonder the dyno was funky! Still made a lazy 818rwhp with bad wires though! Encouraging. Probably will do a coil relocation over the winter, along with a forged shortblock. I just wanted to update this thread with my findings.

Yeah.....that robbed you of a pony or two.

When I read that, it reminded me of this statement after you dyno'ed the car...

Thanks KW. I am thinking stock cubic inch aluminum LS3 with forged parts from Thompson Motorsports... use my AI LS3 heads... may use the current 235/231 cam too.
