You should do yourself a favor and get rid of those slicks and go ahead and get the 275/60 MT Pro's.

I can help you get the shock settings dialed in to get this thing 60' like it should.

Haha ya i'm going with those MT Pro's i'll order those this week but that will be going up a tire size from 27 to 28.2. Talked with John at ATI he was actually really helpful seems to think that the 308 gears need to go and he said do 355s in the rear but we will see after i try those tires out with the new Vikings. This 3700lb car is tough to get moving with the gearing i have but i know tons of guys do it

Ill leave it where its at till I get it to hook consistently then go for 18-20psi. I ran 18 one pass for just a 2-3 shift it was intense I have the video of the run it was funny spun off the line rolled off throttle for about 5 seconds ripped it hard then let off on the brakes still ran 10.3 lol

You need to leave with more boost. The pro's will help you do that as will the shocks.

Oh I agree lol I only can leave with 7psi Max before the tires blow off but I drove around with the Vikings today and the car feels great excited to try them out. The pros will be awesome but the tire size going up is going to give that converter a serious workout!!

Changed my fuel pump set up. My injector duty cycle was very high and think it was because of this ugly set up and it just wasn't feeding enough so took another members idea and made this y set up and when I go with 3 pumps will be a simple install
Before

Compared Y

You should use fuel injection clamps on those hoses instead of the worm style clamps.

Otherwise looks good.
