Made some progress on the turd bucket lately. Just have to prime the new high volume oil pump and it's ready to fire up.

So... tried loading the truck for boost this evening for the first time with the new turbo kit.

Tomorrow, i'll be working on dialing the timing in and tuning the EFI.

Good news is, it was running fat.

Damn. What kind of fuel are you gonna use?

E85.

Here's some light playing around on the street. Quarter throttle 5-7psi.

Once it comes up on boost, it just nukes the tires. Video was in 2nd and 3rd gear.

You gonna try to do anything to get it to hook better? Seems like if you had traction it would fly

Took the wife out for a spin today.

Tune is getting better, I need to figure out some sort of pop-off valve for the cold side.
