Haha! They're both engineers, so I think they were only half serious when they were saying that stuff. They were definitely a little blown away though, because pushing as much as 20 psi boost is much more common in the import world, and those guys don't make half as much power as Mr. 84Ttop is making!
Thanks guys.. After switching to the xb105 we picked up over 165 rwhp. Boost went from 21 psi max with the x trim to 29 lbs with the Xb it moved the power band up over 400 rpms too. The Xb 105 made 1327 and the tube blew off the blower, hence the upgraded restraint. The data log showed 2" of vacuum to 26 psi in .1 seconds with the boost peaking at 29.7 lbs within the first second of wot. I've never seen a turbo motor do that, lol.. We should be getting our hands on the new Vortech 110 mm piece soon and will be testing that in my car along with a few other changes after the Georgia race.
NIKwoaC if you really want to blow thier mind tell them I just ordered a waste gate for my car. Funny part is I'm serious...

Love the "M1A1 Abrams tank" Rearend setup...
Your car sounds awesome on the dyno..... great stats you post as well, and the workmanship on rearend and engine is impeccable. Ummmm just curious, you don't actually drive this to the grocery store now do you?
