Yikes.... Not sure if serious?
What’s wrong with their kit? I haven’t researched too extensively, but the little bit I did seemed like they were pretty good?

I also looked in the on3’s top mount kit a little more and it seems that their stuff is far from being anything close to a relatively “easier” bolt on kit.

Boostworks is banned from this board for a reason. They like to rip off their customers... very very bad reputation.

Do some research on them before you spend any coin.

They were banned bc of the at the time pending child porn charges against the owner, he has since plead guilty to those charges and worked out a deal

Was something wrong with the torque pick up?
Not that I know of. He ran it a couple times through the gears which was strange but idk.

The 821 run was on ~11 psi or so. That was the highest setting I’ve had the car at prior to taking it to the dyno.

We averaged 13-14 psi on the 913 pass which was a first. Kind of puckered me some so I told him no more haha.

I wasn't aware of that issue....I do know they ripped a few people off though....even more reason not to buy from them ever though.



Made it to the dyno finally. Ran at several boost pressures... 6, 8, 11, and 13-14 psi.

Why is the HP and Torque all over the place about mid way? Mind you im by no means good at looking at those plots but it seems it shouldn't be like that...should be a lot smoother.

See my comments above.

Could be tire spin.
We had tire spin issues on 2 of the pulls. Added extra straps and didn’t seem to help.

I left the drag radials on for this reason but didn’t seem to help on the metal roller.
