You need to get a smaller exhaust housing on that huge turbo of yours.

Sounds like a ton of lag.

........and lag is not conducive to going fast There's your physics lesson for the day.

it could benefit from a slightly smaller a/r but its not bad really
it doesn't lag much at all. just launching this thing at the track, has always been a bitch.................


Im considering a automatic with a huge stall just to own 1/4 mile times!

Could it be your gears?
I have 3.23's and there ok on N/A, I would have thought they would be just right for a boosted (or any power adder) V6 w/ stick shift when matched with the right diameter pair of tires.
What can you do to fix your lean problem, any idea?
What did you do to your EGR?
