Its clunky man. I hate it, this is the 2nd TB I've had in this car (first one failed), and it has the pronounced "laziness" more than my original. I let off, and the needle/motor still jump for a quick sec.

Yeah, Sharif is the man, these tunes are right on These power levels are nothing for the block I setup, I rarely run it in high boost, as you can see its overkill....

Ha-no problem, as soon as I find somebody that is cool with the camera, and willing to run I'll post something.

NP Bert, I'll run you... Don't worry about that hissing sound you hear as we line up... It will just be my buddies letting all the air out of your rear tires (to make the race fair of course...) LOL

just curious for the greddy guys, since you have to remove the front bumper alltogether, have any of you noticed any less handing feel since that was one of the things that really tied the two sides of the frame together in the front of the car?
