The level of stack you ran last year was amazing. If nothing else...in sound alone from that charger spinning so darn fast.

Those heads look so darn clean.

Funny thing is that I don't think I was boost-stacking last year. At least not enough to cause any problems. I ran KR-free with the 2.0" pulley on 95 octane or higher.

This year I'll be a bit more efficient thatn my last Gen3, not just in the blower but the whole top end of the motor. My goal is to run the 2.2" with this setup and gain some timing back. I'm sure I could run the 2.0" again, but I'd rather run the 2.2" daily on pump gas without KR.

Looking good, Boss. Things are shaping up nicely.

So, where are all those gauges going? IIRC, your pillar pod didn't have four holes

Wow! A lot of goodies and stuff. All good fun and toys and modding heaven.

That'* what I'm talking about!

I too am curious as to what your plans for the extra piston are.

Trans temp and volts will be in the pillar like before (but the new gauges). That'* where I'm used to seeing them.

Boost and AFR will go to the left of the HUD in a modified GP HUD pod. This is tentative right now, as I still have to determine final Gtech location.
