    Finally Running After Many issues ..... 613 whp 525 wtq(stockish lq9 w/twins)

    custom twin turbos in my case meant twin turbo problems.....

    The setup
    Lq9 stock block other then the arp bolts and studs
    comp cam 236 .601 114 lsa w/ springs to match
    317 heads stock with hand cast smoothing
    Victor Jr. No porting.... something to do later
    60lb Motrons injectors
    Twin garret t04e t4 .61 cold .81 exhaust
    no meth yet not until the nitrous is installed .... and only 93 octane so far....

    but here is my first hurdle a few weeks ago

    no hood for problem identification i guess


    not the only issue but .... it wasnt fun...



    the dyno graph




    Need help on getting more tq!!! any pointers? truck is around 4400lbs would like to see it scoot off the line decent without the nitrous.

    Nice truck man... Awsome numbers, I bet a 50shot would help more than enough. maybe some meth.

    are the hp number typical?? it suprised me abit as the tuner started around 540hp which i was perfectly happy with and ended up there all around 17 degrees timing

    1 coil had a short and it would hit above 460 hp that wasnt fun figuring that out.

    did around 20 dyno runs .... im ready for the track!

    what psi are you running? 12#???
    Thats a good number IMO. I hope to put that much down with my setup. But I have a t70 .96ar on a lq4.

    that dyno graph looks almost identical to mine on the sweep


    ditch that maf when you ge ta chance. with large cams tq will be down compared to hp... that combo seems to keep pulling. probably could pull it 6500-6600 without it falling off
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost
    412 Motorsports

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    that is really good IMO for 10psi and twins... I bet 12-14 psi would put a bigger grin on your face.
