It'll get rid of that temptation to hammer on your new engine.

I can't wait to see what those final numbers are. Question for you though, if you could have the extra 50HP now, that would put you at 590RWHP at 11psi... so is Jim thinking you will only gain 60 more horses with 6-8PSI more (650RWHP total)? I gained nearly 90 extra RWHP with 2psi more and a better tune, so I'd think that you should see more gains than that with that much extra boost. I'm just curious though, I'm not doubting anybody's numbers or estimates.
Anything more than 650RWHP/750RWTQ for the street will make me happy.
But who knows ? 700RWHP/800RWTQ would be a dream !

very nice rafa

i havent posted in your threads because i wanted to wait to see the final results, but i must say that the whole setup is very impressive

and good luck getting the torque convertor issue resolved... its funny because i called Jasper myself about 2 months ago inquiring about a 4r75 monsterbox, and they said they didnt have one yet... i didnt call factory tech, but i was assuming they were almost one in the same as far as the monsterboxes are concerned.

do you know if they made one especially for you? or are they available to anyone now?


anyway, you have an awesome truck, and am glad you finally got it back. i dont think i couldve handled being that long without my truck

I think that when you called them, you got a bad representative on the phone. The 4R75W Monster Box it's been on the market for almost 2 years.

Mad Enterprises sells them.
Talk with Mike and mention my name .

Rafa, despite all the JDM delays I'm happy that you're happy. It's nice to know you can drop that much money into something, have problems and still come out as happy as ever. Sounds like JDM made it right with you.
