I was doing some test runs the past few days and got a few questions for ya. I am seeing 10lbs of boost on the gauge is that right with the mods that I have? Second the a/f gague is staying in the green the whole time Im getting on it, Is the a/f gague that accurate? I have heard people say it's not that accurate. I have not made it to the dyno yet,Is it gonna be to cold this weekend to go to the dyno and test? Also will it hurt if the a/f is oaky and still go to denton on saturday afternoon and make a few test runs? I know I have that leak on the header on the passenger side but want to talk to you before I go to the track and then blow it up.

I figured you would see more than 10lbs with a pulley. When the engine is off you can see if it is biased plus or minus. Running the cold tune should be okay. green is safe depending on what it translates to in A/F. It is a narrow band meter and changes a lot faster than a wideband but they are accurate ot a point.

I was thinkin in the neighbor hood of 14-15 with the ported blower and 4# lower maybee not. When I go to the dyno this weekend I will watch the boost and a/f gague and see what it does.
