Watching the video of your boost gauge it looks like it is building boost way too slowly. Trap speed is low also.

I got the wastegate to solve that problem.

The mph should be up around 135 when i get this setup dialed in. I could always turn the boost up on the wastegate to get more mph too but im gonna get it working good at 10 psig.

note- this was first pass on new setup... yes mph and ET are slow.

Get a converter next and you'll gain a bunch of ET. With the right converter and tune there's no need for the wastegate.

stang910 you may be right on the stall. I do daily this car (2-3 days a week) and not sure the stall is for me. Have son #2 on the way so budget is tight (thus wastegate instead of stall).

You were'nt kidding, car sounds great off the line. It really moves out once your in boost. You can get a mild stall and it will still help tremendously off the line and drive great on the street. However, like you I'm a fan of how the stock one drives

Once you get those few degrees of timing back in it she will be a ripper for sure. I'd say it's still a great pass, you set a new PB and the car isn't even running 100%.

Actually it was only 2nd best pass in car yet. Best was first post in this chain, 10.75 with a better launch. Otherwise those two runs look pretty identical.
