Almost cracked 700 HP

I finally got my new injection line bent up and on the truck tonight.
Single turbo...76 PSI! I just about fell over when I checked the tattle tell gauge.
So, I tried it again. 76 PSI once more. I guess it is just a bit too high for a single charger. LOL!! You should hear that poor thing bark when I let out of it too fast.
The same combo will only give me a 58 PSI on the DynoJet
A few little things to work out the next few evenings and back to the Dyno I go. I was stuck at 646 HP last time around. If I can get it to 700 this spring on one turbo using a Dynojet....Im going to a wicked set of twins

I found the limit of the stock 20 thou marine gasket without o-rings yesterday racing a corvette on the highway with the neighbor in the truck.
Im not sure which blew out first the high dollar 4 ply silicone hose that now has a 1" rip in the side with threads hanging out or the head gasket that popped so hard it blew coolant all over the passenger side mirror at 70 MPH plus.
The funny thing is..... I stayed in the pedal after the pop and still had over 65 PSI of boost
Time for a copper gasket and o-rings! Oh, and a better brand of silicone hose I guess?
Actually my theory on the hose is the crispy hot discharge temps at 76-78 PSI of boost from a single charger.

Impressive to say the least.
