It ran good despite that i couldnt run it at full boost because it kept blowing off the intake coupler to the intercooler. Im goin to buy a full set of T bolt clamps for the system and that should fix the problem. I did hit 70 on the gps running flat with no trim at all. I thought that was impressive concerning. It only did 67 before with it trimed as much as i could without blowing the prop out.

Sounds like with a little wrench time you will have it worked out, but I have to ask why would you not trim the boat???

LOL. I was in the process of doing so and it blew the pipe off. anytime the rpm got around 4500 and started building boost it would blow off the intercooler pipe.

I doubt it. My 502 is just stock with headers and a procharger on 5 lbs.
