Hey raven, are you planning on pullying down w/your tvs? and if you are, would you boost over 30 psi?

will see...the 2.75 boosts 24psi iirc...i might drop to a 2.5 at the lowest..but honestly i could care-a-less about making big numbers for people on the site....if i brake 400whp ima be happy cuz this is my daily driver not a weekend drag car



and the pistons are here and engine should be going in these next couple of days then will need to match up a few more things and then tune and be good to go
