I still might, but right now it was easier to do the 3500 one so I have the nitrous port and because I didn't have everything together to make it work right now, bolts and tubes and such, I gotta dig for all of that.
Hold on...
It's a little loud... I did just the cat on there so it was reasonable. Had it running around 6... It took forever to upload the vid, and I needed food. I cleaned up the shop a little and I'm done for tonight, maybe do some more tomorrow but I dont know. I'm beat.

Shouldn't have more lope unless the valves were leaking bad, I do know one was out of round a little. But either way yeah I gotta get the brakes done and get the exhaust finished. Then I can test the transmission lol.

I just wish it did more off the juice

But oh well just as a turbo car if you take away the power adder its not a powerhouse.
If I had forged internals and MLS headgaskets then maybe I wouldn't be so worried to bump up the compression to 10:1 get a better n/a cam that would also like nitrous and push the power more... But yeah thats about 2k worth of engine work... maybe next year LOL
I also ordered another gauge for the damn car... lol I figure with as much time and money I just put in the trans this year I guess I should monitor line pressure to ensure its at the proper levels. I can keep tabs on the temp via my tuner, but I've never checked/monitored the pressure. VDO had a 0-400 PSI gauge avilable that's electronic with one of their senders for 70 bux total... so now I just gotta find a spot for it lol. Any ideas? Pillar is already claimed by Fuel Pressure and Wideband O2, I was thinking on the shift plate, but I don't know if there is enough room down there.

I put my wideband in a defroster vent. Works for now anyway...

YUCK!.... lol
How can you work with an analog wideband too? Mine is digital... MUCH more precise.
I've seen a gauge in the shift plate before and that only sounds approprate since it is trans related... lol
But I need to see what space have/need to do that.
I guess I could find an aftermarket 3 pillar pod, but I really don't want to custom fit anything like that.

I meant IN/flush mounted to the plate. As noted I need to see if I can fit it below with how deep the gauge is. I don't currently have a pod for it at all.

It doesnt take a rocket scientist to see that the A/F in that pic is 12.5. I think it's easier to read than digital, you can watch it sweet, and it gives a digital datalog output anyway...
Shift plate doesnt sound like it would be tough. It would have to be toward the dash on the pass side though, and it might be tough to see...

You could mount it where mine is just more to the left, then angle it towards yourself more.
