Thanks guys...yea it was 516hp/959tq alittle dissapointing but now its all up to some tuning. I've got the fuel and air but getting them to come in together at the right time is the hard part. Ill have the dyno vid and dyno sheet up later on today.

Yeah not often do you see two 500+hp twin turbo'd 1st gens parked next to each other. I should've gotten a pic before you moved to the Show and Shine, Josh. Maybe there will be two 600+ 1st gens at Scheid's next year.

Yea they are coming in about 300rpm too late....timing is jumped a tooth and pushed to the head. Im going to leave the timing alone tho...last time I messed with timing I lost power. I might put alittle more in it. Im going to see if I can find a BHT3B with an 26cm housing locally and see how it feels.

Bill, amen to that one. Next year ill leave it sitting in the 1stgen area. Im hoping I can catch Dunbar acouple more times this year. And yea that would be awesome!

Very cool. Do you drive the truck everyday or is just a toy?

Its just a toy plus salt will make it melt. I've got a Honda Civic as a daily driver due to college.

Thanks again for all the complements!
