Boost is too low. Needs to be retuned for that charger.

in the same regards, could me a major mechanical issue also. Your running a stock converter that has been beat pretty hard. It may not be coupling well enough to load the engine properly and therefore not building proper boost

Your pretty low on boost to begin with.

I thought so too.

Retune coming soon :hug:

Small update.

Found out I had a few to many qts of fluid in the trans... Not really sure how that happened but now that the level is correct the trans runs much cooler and shifts smoother.

Found a couple boost leaks, pinhole leak in my only non oem boot and one clamp is stripped so my Hot side IC pipe keeps pushing out :(

Did order a turbo blanket tonight! Thanks Levi!

Haven't updated in a while. Trans was built by mike in July, love the trans!

Fastest pass so far is 12.9 @ 105... I know it's got more in it I just don't have time to fix all the little crap that's going on. Only prep I did was take the tailgate off and pull the headlight. I'll try to air down next time. And a shout out to Josh Chavez for dialing in my tunes all the time... These damn Cali LB7s are tricky bastards, or is it just mine lol

I don't think I corrected it but they are actually 45 overs. My cp3 hold rail very well. I think I am in need of a new FPR tho, have a slight lope at idle.

Ordered a new up pipe gasket and bolts from MA but they haven't arrived yet so I won't have another track update until they get here and I get them put on.
