Thank you.
Thanks, Jason. Get yours going!
I have a 40mm JGS gate on it now. With my cutout closed it seems to be holding it right at spring pressure of 10-12 lbs.

I was thinking maybe piston slap? I know that quiets down when warmed up. However, my motor makes the sound when warm. This thing is all sorts of noisy and keeps on taking a beating, ha.
Maybe Ryan will chime in with his thoughts though.

Hmm...I notice a little tick when I first start mine but it's been that way since it started running after the turbo build. I wasn't sure if it was a little exhaust leak or something. It's not noticeable when I'm out driving it but I thought maybe it's because there isn't as much for the sound to reverberate from on an open road vs. being in my garage/driveway.

Tick at start up after not running for a while to me seems to be the lifters. Slight knock can be piston slap/rattle until the piston warms up and fits the bore a bit tighter. Tick while warm may be a lifter noise a gain that was worse at start up. My fastest jy motors seem to have this tick after some beatings.
136-137mph is pretty good trap for such low boost! I may have to try out a TU1 or TU1.5 cam next time.

What does your exhaust consist of? 3" downpipe to...I know you said the cutout was closed for that track run as well.
Just curious as I have a Hinson set-up going on my Vette with a T'netics 7875 and a 3" DP. 6liter also so our basic builds are similar.

Ok got it, I don't have a cut-out on mine yet, it's a 3'' downpipe to my BB Bullet exhaust. Should flow decent enough.
Your setup kicks *** man.

Car was 3440 with the TT2's and the stock K in the car with about 3/4 tank of gas. Really need to get it weighed again to see what it is actually at. Talking to the boss man and seeing if we can dyno it again this week

Drove the car to the local 1/8 mile track tonight to get a couple of passes. A couple of buddies helped me swap in a friends Moser 9 inch with 3.25 gears, so I had to see what she was capable of. I drove the car to the track on the Mickey's but had the torque thrusts up front. Only made two passes. First pass was through the exhaust and controller off which is the 10-11 lbs. I ran on in the 1/4. It ran a 7.0 @105 ish with a 1.8 60'. I decided to open the cutout for the next pass which put me around 14-15 lbs.
Here's the slip...
I will have it back at a 1/4 mile track on October 5th, can't wait.
