I run one 44mm and make near same power, i would think two 46's are way bigger then mine? I guess bling...but unless im dragging the bumper down the street no ones seeing my setup. Im just seeing if there could be problems running my one 44mm?

Maybe he can pitch in with some other information about the setup that I might be missing.

Ya, as soon as I get some people to race, you bet your *** Im gonna get some video.

My buddy has a hot cammed lt1 with spray, so I know he wants to go out and go for a cruise.

I need to get a rematch with the supra I ran against when I spun a bearing.

Hes currently making 750 rwhp or so I think, so Im gonna find out hopefully soon.

Definately plan on seeing more vids of my car though

I just wanted to get an "inital" video out there for people like me that wanted to hear how it spools, the bov, etc...

Right now, im at 12.5 lbs of boost.

I have no reason to turn it up as I still dont have traction in 1st, 2nd, and a small portion of 3rd.

Oh, and my PM box is clear now for anyone that needed to pm me
