Paxton does not feel that quick

[205.0]

That's odd, I can punch it from 2nd and third and it won't even try to lose traction. NT05R 305/35/19

This should be the fastest car I've been in. The only other quick one I've ridden in has been a cammed ls2 corvette.

This is an intake tune catback 5.0 with no passenger, and I had 1 passenger. Does this look about right for the 3.6 pulley, JLT, and straight hooking?

I would say you should be walking away form him much harder than that. You really need to check for boost leaks but I would think Lund should have been able to see a difference in something. Grab a cheap boost gauge from the auto parts store.

That's what I was thinking. Third gear from 60 and I barely pull a single car.

This is very true. My car makes 750hp/575tq to the wheels and runs almost 140mph in the 1/4 and it DOES NOT always feel fast to me. Anyone in the passenger says it feels really fast. You definitely get used to it but you should sure notice it at first unless you have a history of fast cars that would make you not notice.

I was in the passenger seat and it felt slow to me

Thats definitely not right unless that car weighs 3000lbs.U should be pulling cars on him.Sometimes problems are hard to see in the tune.

His is a few pounds lighter, but it's just an intake and bama tune. It should be pulling train lengths on it, but it really didn't. Lund said the logs looked great, so I'm really not sure what my next move should be besides just getting a boost gauge.

go through and check you clamp connectors. there have been plenty of people on here that have had issues and logs look ok but turns out the clamp to MAF was loose etc.

I'll check the clamps and everything right now, and I'll also have my installer take a look tonight since I have very little mechanical experience.

I think this may be the issue. The other side is rock solid, but this one, not so much.

are you turning off advance trac? my car feels worlds diff from normal to track mode with advance track turned off. turning off advance track turns it intoa whole other beast.

Does the Paxton always sound like that? It sounds less like whine and more like an air leak to me.

IMO, given that video I would say you aren't too low on power. I bet it would look much different had it been lower mph pull.

It always sounds like that piercing whistle noise. Not sure what else it should sound like, and yeah I pulled pretty hard still. Also, I have used it without advancetrac.

In case you do find something loose, be sure to check with Lund on how you should log it. You don't want to go out rompin on it only to find out you were down 2-3psi which isn't tuned for a hurt the motor.

Mine does that too and it is annoying. It should spin in s fond but it might not if road is good and air is bad.
