Recently had Bassani headers and a 2 lb lower installed. I’m running a 2.76 upper plus full Bassani exhaust. (Sounds great!)

I hope to get to the dyno some time next week to check A/F and my new numbers.

The car feels great but now I’m wondering if I should have gone for the 4 lb. At this altitude I’m seeing around 12 lbs of boost. I know it’s more efficient but does that mean I should spin the Eaton harder?????

Its all in the tune. You should have no problem running a 4lb lower but I also dont know how the altutude works there and I know it effects the cars alot. But if you get a good tune then you should have no problems.

Thanks. I feel pretty good about my tune. I just don't get the whole boost. I know I'm getting air in and out quicker, just not sure if I want to spin it any harder.

Well you know how some of us feel about it. Spin the crap out of it.
