Yeah it was a wild ride on the street. I went out to see how it would do with the 7.25" crank pulley but it was really to hard to drive and stare at the boost guage with no traction and I sure as hell don't have anywhere around here where I can wind it up in 1:1 gear(C4) to see the boost.:) I saw ten plus for a second in second with maybe a hint of belt slippage.:)

I had the timing back to a whopping 5* initial.

I am still to uncomfortable to just go out and race or beat on it until I put the car on a dyno again.:)

WIMP.....
I thought you were doing the 7.5, not the 7.25. BEAT ON IT......

The 7.5" unit is the custom scratch built unit I am still waiting for.
It's being partial payed with beer so who knows when it will be done.

Ahh, the good old days. I recall that my street tires were useless even with only running 7#'s, but then again there's nothing like smokin' 'em at 70 plus on the freeway :D
