Whipple Charged

I'm new to this particular forum and just thought I'd share my ride. All the work except for tuning was done by me. Tuning was performned by Fast Lane Motorsports. Here are some vids and I have also posted some pics in my gallery. The second vid dosen't get good till about 40 secs in. ENJOY!!

Yes, Caleb tuned it in mid october. We never got the drive by wire set right. The sensitivity is off on it. After emailing tunes and trying different things I'm taking the truck back there this Thursday. There gonna send the data log to SCT. One of their engineers knows a little more about setting this up. I can't wait to drive it and not have it surging.

I'd like to but I'm a little worried the motor won't hold up. I want this truck to last me a long time.

I've been running 12lbs for nearly 4 years now(February) I beleive it's 100% safe to say 12lbs is safe.

Whipple even sells a 10lb kit....

I think I'm about to get a lower and shoot for 14-15lbs.

No tranny is stock. I was thinking of put a valve body kit in it. I like to find a quality kit thats worth the money.

I am going to be putting on the Troyer valve body here in the next month, I'll let you know what I think of it. Windsor I think has this kit already and he seems to like it. Also another guy has the BC automotive Valve body kit and loves it. I'm not sure if these kits will work on your tuck or not but they are worth checking out, they sell for $300.

Slap on a lower pulley and do 12-13lbs. You will be right at the limit of your injectors and look to either do modified GT-500 duel fuel pump setup or a boost a pump.
