I honestly don't want to go with a regular journal bearing charger that isn't gonna be fun on the street after thinking about it more today.
I would hate to get that and not be happy and im pretty picky lol.
I know the huge injectors, cam, and my converter will help and Ill play with the TCM tuning but just not sure if ill be happy with one of those.

It takes me 10 seconds to spool on an 80* day with an S475/83 1.10 A/R
With some fine tuning I'm sure it would be faster but still not good enough.
GTX4202R
As you know i have this similar set up (GTX4202R/GT5541R) They come up like baby twins. Super Responsive for a set of street compounds and sound better than a jet turbine. These have been the most fun set i've had so far, other than when the big charger lights, you start to have doubts about how "built" the motor really is :roflmao:
So does a hybrid HX55 or stock HX60. I'm in love with the holsett sound, durability, and turbine flow capabilities.
Ya there is no way I could deal with that. I can be up and on top of mine now is around 2 seconds.
Have you driven a 75mm inducer single on the street yet? This how the truck will behave when driving daily if you run a 75mm (GT4202/S475) as the small charger in a twin setup.
If you can get the shifting working well, it's a blast. But you need a TCM that has 8.1L gas tuning in it, but will shift into 5th at WOT. At first Allison was going to help me out, but they never came through due to the whole bankruptcy thingy.
I never did get that resolved. One of my many unfinished projects.

Note: With a 75mm second charger the converter becomes critical. It will EASILY push through the brakes when staging. You will want something a bit loose, so you can get the R's up without the big boost kicking in yet.
I hope I get my arse in gear this year. I always wanted to figure out how to get a really big single to work as a daily driver, like an 80mm or bigger.

Ya ive driven a built motor lbz with a GTX 4202 with much smaller injectors and it was pretty fun to drive actually.
I have an experiment converter from Georend that Mike L was trying out. It is definitely on the looser side which is wayyy better than the 57 I have in my black lbz.
I can left at around 30lbs now with no problems. in the 1.5 60'
I was running a single 80mm charger with 2 rags stuffed in the intercooler accidently, and was in the 1.5's. Pretty sure that was biggest single I tested. PPE GT42Mag
Without the rags, but with a 75mm restrictor in it (3.0 class), stock injectors, full pull: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAbgw0w5_gs

Midnight rush to get the truck ready. My fault. I stuck the rags in it when we were changing stuff so nothing fell into the engine. Guess I missed a couple.:rofl:
