FUNCOOL does it again!!!
Well, tonight was the big night!! I had the rear over-drive kit put on and all I can say is "wow'' the car is sick!!!!! I was spining 3rd gear with my 345 bfg's drag radails. O.K now for the big news, I was hitting 15lbs of boost, 15lbs!!!!!!!!!!!! I can hit the throttle at 1500rpm's and it makes 15lbs and keeps the boost right to red line! Remember this is a 402ci ls2 with one sick maggie on top!!!!

Congrats on your added boost.
But I hope you know spinning that little maggie like that is going to void your warranty.
So what drive pulley ratio are you having to run to make that much boost on a 402?
What did you change to raise your boost? And how much was you making?

Congratulations, sounds like you have or will soon have the meanest Maggie around. But why do you talk about yourself in the third person?

Funny, I saw condensation on the top of his Maggie after he got back to the shop after a few pulls. ECS Dual Nozzle Alky kit does wonders!

Are you sure that is condensation and not steam?
