    Controlling boost while spooling

    Ok guys this might be a dumb question but when I’m spooling at the line I hit a certain rpm where the boost just wants to take off and constantly push through the brakes. It makes for very inconsistent staging and if I’m not right at that point when launching it almost bogs down.. my question is...

    Need some 60ft advice

    Fuel cell questions

    Yeah no problem it’s easy to pull the factory sensor out of the factory tank. Just have to trim in to fit in the hole of the fuel cell and I ended up using the factory float just need to cut a couple inches off.

    Fuel cell questions

    All I did was make the factory fuel gauge work with parts of the Rhodes level sensor so I don’t have to get the fuel gauge re scaled in the tune since I don’t tune my own truck.

    RCLB Frame Differences

    I have a buddy that thought he bought a 2500hd 01 Silverado years ago until I pulled my lowered 06 2500hd Silverado beside it and mine sat higher. Someone put 2500hd badges and the hd front end on a 1500hd. They have a half ton frame.

    Goerend J vs suncoast 10531

    I haven’t tried any other converters in this truck.. and I just scrolled to the beginning of the thread and realized the op was running a single.

    Goerend J vs suncoast 10531

    Not to hijack the thread but I’ve been looking at converters lately looking to change mine out before spring I have a precision 2000 stall now. I’m constantly pushing through the brakes when trying to stage. After researching it sounds like the J might be a good one for me what do you guys...
