Made 2 runs at the track over the weekend. Ran a 12.88 and a 12.91. Not too shabby for a stock 5.3 on boost. Already need more lol. Aem wideband and GFB boost controller have already been ordered. Sent from my SM-N970U using Tapatalk

We just did driveability tuning on 93, no power pulls. The idea is for the truck to live on e85 or better, but still be able to run 93 if i get in a bind on a trip or something and can't get ethanol. Sent from my SM-N970U using Tapatalk

Here is a 2015 regular cab lowered 2/4 Sent from my SM-N970U using Tapatalk

Oh you know I did! Low throttle, it drives exactly like a stock truck, putts around nice and laid back. If I step on it in 2wd, instant smoke show lol. In 4wd however, even on a boosted launch, there is no spin at all, she just launches and pulls hard. So much fun! Sent from my SM-N970U using Tapatalk

Couldn't help but flex just a tad Sent from my SM-N970U using Tapatalk

Good news, just got back from the tuner. Truck put down 512 hp and 534 ft/lbs on 7lbs with E85 and a pretty conservative tune. There is definitely more on the table, but without a boost controller, I'm limited to whatever springs I put in the wastegates. But we all know this isn't the end of the road.

The goal is 1200ish at some point, so I went big on purpose. I honestly expected them to be laggy, but even without a good tune they're not bad at all. Sent from my SM-N970U using Tapatalk

I just looked, the mcgaughys spacer will work for 1" drop. You still use the stock strut, you just replace the lower spring perch with theirs and use how many ever shims you need for the amount of drop you want.

I think mcgaughys has an adjustable strut spacer that you add or remove shims from to set the ride height, I'm not sure what the smallest drop setting is though. Otherwise, most of the stuff I've seen out there starts around 2" which is a really good look on a truck with a 2/4 drop. For reference, here's a 2015 with a 2/4 drop on 22s Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Thanks, I appreciate it! If you have any questions, feel free to give me a shout and I'll answer anything I can. I went with the GTX3582R gen 2 turbos. Way too much turbo for my stock 5.3, but I'm planning on a pretty stout 400+ cube engine at some point so I went big so I can grow into the turbos. I can't wait to get the truck tuned and to the track to see how she does. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Honestly, those are really more for 1ton and bigger trucks with stiff suspension. 1/2 ton trucks aren't heavy enough for them to do much good. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Yes [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] The first opening he had is June 15th. Everybody's working on their rides during quarantine lol Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

You may be right Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Nice, I put mine back on, but I removed the plastic piece that holds the harness. Stupid place to tie up a harness. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Sweet! Just about time to start skinning knuckles. Helpful tip for removing the intake manifold, unbokt the manifold cover, then unbolt the manifold itself. At that point you can pull the manifold out from under the cover. There are a couple harness tie downs on the back of the cover that make it almost impossible to remove with the manifold.
