My Ride: 2006 Chevy Vortec Max, LQ9, 4X4, no cats, 50 Series Flowmaster in factory pipe, 20"s, C.A.I., Custom tune by Dustin at TRT Performance
I think you don't have enough resistance for the turbo to spool up with 4.10 gears. The shifting is a tune issue. The gears may hurt your times, b/c your truck is so light. I could be wrong, but most turbo trucks like a little smaller gear to give the turbo a little resistance. With 31 inch slicks, a 3.73 is as low as I would go with a turbo, now n/a trucks with a 31 inch tire, I would go with a 4.56.
I could be wrong, but that is my two cents.
I'll try and make it to the track Friday to watch you run, since Allen will have the truck torn down.
