Wish I had that kind of fuel pressure. I'm still running a stock lift pump. Not sure which aftermarket setup would be best for cold MN winters and road salt.

The #'s look good. The pyro at wot looks a bit low, but it is at stock fueling levels so that might be about right. FP and boost are great #'s

oh ya, what about that tranny temp though, is that in the norm, i'm concerned about that, cause i rigged up my own fittings and stuff and i'm not too sure that those readings are real accurate but then again, maybe they are.
