Im not 100% yet but i will try to get that day off. I Would run the rollers as i did not make it last time everyone went to olds, but i need to c about a turbo this week cause i think mine is on the way to kicking the bucket. And if it does, its a toss up between a large single or the BD twins(if i can get a good deal on them.) But i will know within the next week here if i can make it up there for this event.

I am new to the site.
Would like to come and meet some of the guys and hang out. Don't know if I would run the dyno....wouldn't want to embarrass myself at my first GTG. It would be nice to take a gander at all the other rigs. I am lookin for some input and suggestions of what goodies to buy for the truck.

You won't embarass yourself. You need a base line, right? As for goodies for your truck, I'd reccomend a Smarty, seeing has you don't have any boxes on it (or in your sig, atleast). I'll be bringing mine along, try it out on the rollers and see what kind of gain you get. I got an extra 76 on my truck, Luke got 20ish on his. I think the operator spiked the dyno on his stock run though. 242 hp to the wheels, with 235 at the crank?

That would be awesome. Maybe I'll put her on the dyno then. Be interesting to see if there's a difference. I want to install the edge juice/attitude when I get some extra moola. Probably would have to upgrade the tranny at that point as well.

Morkable,
So far it looks like we (Mrs Swamp Donkey and me) will be leaving FSJ early friday afternoon, be in the GP area around 4:30 or so then off towards Edmonton. My sister-inlaw lives in Bon Accord so that is where we will be pitting in for a couple of nights. Let me know if any of that travel will work for you.
Jason,
Hope to see ya there!

I will try to make it for the 17th. I have to see my sched for that week, but it should work. I won't be running the rollers again, operators were not good at driving an over-fueled/under turbo'd 12V last time.
