Oh yea, what are your 1/4 miile times and HP ratings with that S/C?
From some of the things I have been reading on here, it appears that "BUILT TOUGH" doesn't necessarily mean, can't blow up. Extreme cases, I know.
I have not been to the track yet with my truck. There isn't a 1/4 mile track closer than 200 miles either and couldn't tell you how far away the closest is. Still working my way out. There are a few 1/8's close by and will be hitting them soon.
Getting new HP ratings for a SS after modding is hard. AWD dynos are not difficult to find, but ones with a 143" wheel base is. Removing the front driveshaft seems to be the only option and not a very safe one. I have not attempted and don't plan to right now. If I had to guess on my HP, I would say somewhere in the 500 range, but just a guess.
