The blond in blue is hot.

It always perplexes me when the torque to horsepower ratio is less than 2:1 for a first gen.

The bigger turbo you get and/or the more timing you run, the less likely you will maintain 2:1 ratio.
Hx35 with 1.55 mm timing you will do it.
Using a 62/71/14 and 2.25 mm; probably not.

Awesome pull man . Goerend's the best!

Yea less than 2:1 usually means lots of timing, Same deal on archer39's truck, below 800ft lbs but 400Hp..

the optical pick-up was messed up. It was reflecting off my pick-ups for my tach and all sorts of crap. Mike said not to pay attention to the numbers too much.

very nice.

What mods are done to the truck? Were you spraying on the second run? Seems odd that the numbers varied so much.

I think it would make more power on a load dyno where you could get the turbo spooled earlier...I only have the 3200 spring, but I know my pump is pretty much done by 2800. Even with the 4K spring it still looked like your peak power was down lower. Add some timing and see where it goes from there. Also I think you could use more fuel if you only picked up 90 hp at the wheels with an .080 jet. Maybe it's time for a 14mm
