the good and the bad

as i am wrapping up the details of my interior restoration i desided to run the sending units for the boost and pyro and i take it for the first test ride and nail it but i dont have enough gas to get on the freeway so with it topped in 3rd with the getrag i hit a whopping 15 pounds of boost

that was the bad


the good!!!! is my stock pump and turbo and exhaust only hits 800 on the egts!!

its almost time for a 4 inch and a htt stage 4 and some pump tweaks

my dodge neon srt-4 used to pull more boost then this big ol laggy turbo!


what boost you guys run stock?

I just re-installed a used pump on my 93 today, due to the 230hp BD pump breaking the main shaft internally. With the standard tweaks, my stocker is allowing 21psi and EGT's are 850-900 empty wot. Not enough smoke to see it in the mirror after boost. Stock pump-no tweaks was right at 15psi.

Sounds about right for a stock truck.
