I don't know on a big dyno day, but when I've been there, I've run the truck because I had multiple changes to make.

Keegan, what time you plan on leaving your house? I can meet you there and we can head up to Greensboro.

Dennis, I'm bringing a jack, those training wheels are coming off

MikeD said he might run if he gets his turbo back.

Wow, this is getting bigger and better.

I'll be leaving about 6:30. Wanna meet me at the ramp to get on 85 north where it crosses 64? There's lots of parking room on the side there. We'll also take that new bypass to get to wendover. Its sweet!!

I will probably meet you fellas there at 6:30 also if that is okay. Definately gonna dyno, may need more than 3 runs also, but will not need a solid hour.

This charger is surprisingly fun to drive. I had the mind set from the beginning that with the big A/R and larger turbine wheel I would experience more lag. Spool up is pretty darn good, some of that could be contributed to the coated exhaust housing?

I haven't really laid into it all that much, yet.. I want to get some mileage on it before pouring the coal. With that said; it runs a tad bit hotter just cruising, but rolling into the pedal I wasn't able to get over 1200* with just injectors.

The other observations I made beyond EGTs. I got the charger lit around 1600-1700 rpms in 3rd gear. This new charger has a different sound to it as well.

I'll have some more seat time tomorrow to log some mileage. I don't want a ticket so I save the full "ON" runs for the dyno and the track.
