Are you using the WG that came with the kit? If so how is it working and how much boost have you tried with it?

Yes, he is using the TiAL 44mm gate, it holds steady boost at gate pressure, and also from the AEM EBC. We have seen 18psi so far (changed wg spring to a 10psi spring).

They do, but they want to have a look at this 3 disc first. We'll give them a call today since we have not heard anything yet. Bob

I think its a K&N number, i'll check with parts to see what the PN is. Got lucky the inlet on the 85 and the 91 was the same.

Stall is back in the car and tuning in progress. Much tighter then before Cant wait to get it tuned in and have the owner run it at the track. Going from 360 or so rwhp to 800+

Man this thing is loud when she hits boost!

At 14psi of boost, you are at 715rwhp and 760rwtq , on the dyno with the stall locked up full boost (14psi) is around 4700rpm.

Definatly ALOT tighter then the other converter for sure lol.

We plan on putting the good gas (c16) in tommrow and doing some more tuning for higher levels.
