    On the dyno and doing a pull are two different things.

    The Devil Struck Again We shredded a Gilmer drive belt on the last Pull But we got the car really close and it was making Awesome Power Numbers. This car was making 454 Horse and 490 Ftlbs @ 4000 rpm with a 8.8 AFR

    I think the belt was either Defective (there was no contact anywhere on it), Or because we are pushing so much boost we need a Bigger blow-off valve (something Lance at Pro-Charger had mentioned but said until it's together and making boost we would not know) So I am ordering 3 belts and we will see if it lets go again (I doubt it will) I know PH is really excited about this car and the look on his face during the first pull was priceless.

    I am interested in the larger BOV theory... Not sure if I really need one, but ya never know.
    Who is "Numb" and why are you feeling her/him? lmao I kill myself sometimes.

    Actually I spoke with Lance at Pro-Charger Today at length about it and he says we should be good on the BOV. He says the valve on there now supports 15 PSI so it was a defective belt. He's sending out 2 belts and we will keep our fingers crossed that the Devil stays asleep Friday.

    Nice. Talking about just missing the magic number. haha

    Hmm, I wonder what my BOV is good to (PSI wise)? It's the raptor BOV.
