Do you have news for us on your :cool: turbo setup specially the 1-⅝ waste gate, at what rpm does boost start and how much do you get at 2000 rpm?

sorry guys, i've gotten way busy with a new business venture and I've of course gone off the deep end with the cylinder heads of my engine I'm building. The turbo kit and various parts and peices are done, hell the truck is half way back together. But we are installing beryllium seats and 7 mm stemmed titanium valves of a larger size. Several problems are created, my new rocker shafts are built, we are using big block mopar roller rockers, with custom shafts so we milled the stock rocker shaft stands off of the heads.........more to come, I promise. We are going to be marking the pistons in the next few days for the valve reliefs, and we are also having a gear drive set butcherd up so we can adjust the cam timing.
