Looking good, Matt. Curious to see what it does when Carl gets a hold of it for tuning!

so yesterday i put a new third member in with taller gears . and pulled the old stocker case out. and i have two half inch cracks in my locker housing. one on each side right where my mini spool pin is. can i say i got lucky with that one. if that would have blown up. but the car likes the taller gears but if feels alot slugger now. i have not left off the brake yet with the taller gears im still heat cycling them. i also just bought more gauges and getting it ready for carl.

so i got the car done for the tuner. what a night mare that all was. im droping it off in a week. the only thing i have to do is put on is the front bumper cover. but that takes only 20 min at most. but the car looks awesome with all the gauges in. about 1500 bucks worth between the 2 widebands and 8 electric auto meter ultra lites gauges. eltronic gfb boost controller and (nitrous controller not used just wired in.) i also switched rearend cases again. i blew the yokun case and gears a while back so i pulled them out and put in my backup. but i got the yukon case back in so i drove it for a couple hours the other day with no issues to heat cycle them. what a difference 4.11 to 3.25 are.

What happened to the Yukon case? Which one did you have. Would imagine those 3.25s help load that motor quite a bit more .

not the case the gears broke chunks off of (yukon case). and the torque on the 411 was insane. and i pulled the my backup housing out and i almost shaped the carrier housing there about 2 one inch cracks in it so time to get that one rebuilt now also. my backup is a stock housing with 411 and mini spool. my yukon has 325 and a full spool.

so i got the car done a load on the trailer for the tuner tomorrow. what a pain in the ass. i worked 60 hours in 2 weeks to get it done. wensday it starting surging and what a pain to figure out in speed density. im going to ask my tuner if he can make me another tune for another ecu to get it so i can read misfire data. so in other word a ecu to do diagnostic. just to get it to idle good and maybe 4 psi on the ecu and than a full blown tune on another ecu .

I have exactly what ur talkin about... my obd 2 set up..makes less power but no ses lights... and my obd1 set up...that does not use all of the ses/sensors as obd 2. When insp for emissions comes along...its obd2... when it needs scanned its obd 2...the rest of the time...obd 1...
Good luck at the tuners...

Think you'll bring her to the shootout? Have you ever had the car at the track?
tt383lt1

so i dropped the car off today and now i have to wait til friday to get it back. and i actually might make it to the shootout because I'm having a baby pretty close to car craft so i can't make it there plus a couple local good cruise and show maybe 500 cars. so i think the shootout will be the only thing left and thats if i get my mwc cage in. i ordered it on black friday and just got it a couple weeks ago. but we will see how the car is when i get it back. ( the tuner is carl at cj tunes) he tunes all the lsx turbos up here and is the best at what he does so im expecting a lot. hopfully im taking number one in hp 850-9xx rwhp is doable
