Starts building boost around 3000-3200 rpm . I’m running a 3200 stall , 3:73 gear and 4l80e , 28” tire . Been putting some miles on it back and forth too work, thing is a blast to drive. When you get on it you have to be on your toes lol. I finally just added 3 point seat belts feel safer now lol

Nice work!

There's no torque like turbo torque. I have had my setup going for 5 years and it's been such a blast. Enjoy yours and drive it everywhere!

Thanks for the update. And good idea on the 3 point belts. Nothing like safe fun! I bet it feels like a rocket when it begins to pull.
