That turbo sounds familiar. Nice numbers. Congrats. That whistle sounds so good after all the long hours. I can't wait to turn mine up.

I'm not sure about making the runs in 5th to gain the load. Definitely harder on the driveline but might actually get the tune closer. Next time around we'll apply different load amounts via the eddy current and find out for sure.

CO2 for the gate would be nice but for a street car?

I'm taking that same bottle would last I'd say 3-4 months and is wayyyyy cheap to fill. Maybe $5 at any paintball range. I know. I've done it LOL

Not to go off track, but what does the C02 buy you, I'm not that familiar with it? Run real low boost with a bigger spring?

Thanks,

On a C5 especially that would be wayyy too much MPH/drum speed for most dynos.
