You better get the job, my wife wants a lightning!

EDIT: BTW Jer, I was checking DA's the other night and it seems that its better at night. The DA Sat. at 10 in the morning was 7900ft and at 11pm it was just over 7000.

Did you notice any difference in peak boost or how quickly it comes on?

Frank that is just insane I hate that we are up so high but ALB such an awesome place to live weather wise. The interview with Rich Ford went well, but they are kinda limited on benefits from the get go, you have to work there 6 months to see anything. Normally that would be good, but I have a little one that I need insured at all times. I just finished taking that TWO HOUR ASSessment test at the Bell Group I now have to wait 10 days for a phone call from them, what a joke that test was.

Bomax, I am sure I haven't seen peak boost yet, I still a had quite the way to wind it out. Boost comes up pretty quickly, I will get more testing done this week. My morning was spent driving the Mountaineer around looking for work

Did you have another pulley on before this, or is this the first time you've ran the blower? I'm interested in the SDCE kit because someone else claimed that they had an immediate jump in boost (i.e. when they mashed the gas instead of starting at 4psi and building it started at 6) than on the fixed tension (stock ATI) setup, and their peak boost was also increased. So I was seeing if you also saw these two nice features...

Bomax, I guess you missed my mega post's on the cog set ups(one of the first to try that set up) and my MMS 3.2 troubles way back in the day. This is going on to be my third pulley set up just on the ATI kit.......I won't even get into the PD s/c kit I had before this one. Let me get some more testing done and I will post up my thoughts and expirences with the SDCE kit, just give me a day or two. I had to go search for a job today and I wasn't driving the bird

Thanks Flynblu, No doubt on taking the car to the interview....I did tell the guy at Rich Ford that I was a carguy by nature and I like to work on all cars except for Fords he didn't smile back at me though Guess that was kind of dumb to do at a ferd dealership lol.

No problem Bomax, I just hope to the no slip belt gods that everything works as smoothly as it has so far.
