Looks great... What else do you want? Oh I know... n/m...

How does it run? You haven't even done a rundown on things... A review of how it's running would be nice. You might get more interest if there is more information. You stated 4+ days ago that you were going to the dyno in 2 days.... Did that happen? What did it pull? Have you had it tuned for 8psi yet?...

mach isnt using a stock spider thats y i asked.
yes they are......... beleive me every boosted s10 or blazer on s10forum would have an upgraded spider injection if there was an upgrade- mach doesnt have a custom mpfi on his truck. thats with the FMU and fuel pump and sometuning he hit those numbers
Your setup turned out pretty good... i like it. However Mach's #'s are wrong. When mach ran his blazer the turbo was WAY to small. He has changed the setup on that blazer like 4 times. Mach is local for me, he tuned my blazer, and is helping us with our hopefully 1000 h.p. syclone build. I will p.m. u the rest i dont want what im going to say getting in to the wrong hands...

sounds good- the stock block can only handle 400whp usually tune has to be perfect- hes making more hp now on a bigger turbo? how big was the turbo he was on @ 360whp?

there is a guy on s10forum making 402whp on stock spider- hes using the procharger FMU and inline fuel pump- so im not to worried- i will try and max out the 4.3L once i get ready for the 5.3L swap- see if she can take 400+whp for a while....

yeah u will be fine as long as u have enough pressure which u do probably so ur good, also as long as ur spider isnt one of the defective ones like mine is and needs to be replaced.
