hey Terry.... if you get a chance... read through my other thread where I went to dyno today and then got beat yesterday by another L that just ran an 8.5 at kennedale and has alot less mods than me...

id like to bring it by your shop one day and let you take her for a test drive and maybe gimme some thoughts as to why i dont have more power/boost than I do.... i was expecting another 10+ hp and 2-3 boost than I am actually having....

any thoughts??

I've run a 9.1 myself and don't get beat on the street:evil . The only think I could think of is making sure the boost actuator is adjsuted properly. It should run about 10 inches of vacuum at an 80mph cruise. Then build boost as you tip in pretty quick. If it doesn't build any boost until heavy throttle it needs to be adjsuted. Make sure the intercooler pump is working and circulating fluid.
