the prochargers require a flash to run right when you install them so my understanding would be you need to flash the computers back to stock so that they run right now with out the procharger.... my .02 hope it helps

Bingo!

More than likely, you're going to need 1.50 gears.

What he said!

Depending on what year 42 it is, but my buddy with a 2006 42 turns 30's with twin staggard 525's and 1.5 drives. I think you might be overpropped, rich, and lacking some timing for stock 415HP 502 mags with the ecu's setup for the blowers.

I don't know if it has 1.35 was just saying that it could be a reason for sum of this problem, we are going to check the ratio first,so keep the input coming.JOHN SR

I have done this, but the reverse direction. More than likely the ECM's will need to be flashed to stock, injectors changed to stock, and possibly the drives need to be 1.50 ratio. Jeff Wurl
