Default Progress numbers on TT corvette!!

LMR: is doing all the work
LME: built the engine
RPM: built the tranny
TTIX: turbo kit


We ran out of time today. We'll turn it up some more next week!

We left it with the current tune:
Timing= 15 (left it low for now)
Boost= 14PSI

Nice numbers! That car will be dirty on kill.

What size is the motor? Those must be big turbos if they are hitting 14.7 psi by what looks like 5,300 rpms, or is that pretty normal for twin setups on lsx's?

turbos are 67mm T3/T4s but the converter is so loose it is actually making it lag, it doesn't load the motor up right....
they are planning on restalling it before turning up further
