Well that jives pretty well with expected hp at that boost level on stock engine I would think. How do you make the thumbnails bigger ,can't read them.
Especially wanted to look at the afr also. Wonder how that ls7 clutch is going to hold up.

That is the stock 7psi springs that came in the kit. The tuner said it peaked at 8psi.

Sorry, had to shrink them so they could be uploaded. AFR peaked at 14.5 down low and then settled at a very constant 11.5 - 11.6ish.

Good to see. My install is well underway. I'll be running 10 psi through an auto.

I'm sure lots of people who have this kit are reading this thread. So I'll share my experience from today.
The kit CAN be made to work with a 4L80E. It doesn't really fit without some moddng to the bellhousing but it can be done.

Yeah I am going to try to be at the Motown Muscle track rental on Tuesday. Still haven't decided if I will be making any runs down the track. I am sure I may, but don't want to break anything 2 days after I get it back.

For sure Mark! We may have to run the twins on the same run to make lots of heavenly turbo noise as we go by the guys in the stands.
