No It will never be dead for more than a week at a time... Well let me think... I got my 6 pack of torco, bumped my timing up 1 degree, it runs much stronger. So now I know how to set it up for weekend fun... I'm going to see what happens to my mpg with the boost bypass open all the time, ill take the vacuum lines off and put a tie wrap on it just for a while to see if it changes anything. I ordered the canton intercooler tank and the battery relocate kit, should be in Wednesday, put a little more weight over the back axle...
