I live in Colorado....actually no, i sprayed nitrous before I even got the SC lol....once I put the SC on i have blown 4 transmissions...not because It couldnt handle it but because my tune was messed up. I had to go to a 2 bar map sensor and it was never calibrated correctly so it sent false numbers to the TCM and therefor I was running 50% clutch volume indexes and therefor i was slipping in 3-5 gear. so once i get it back from the shop that is tuning it CORRECTLY and fixing the tans i will run my SC and run nitrous on track only.

Ohh ok. There is a local guy running 8lbs on procharger P1, comp 268 cam, 50 shot, 3000 stall, 4.10s, and LT on a stock trans and is running 11.80@117 but that's down here in houston . Alot of street races and track visit and stock trans still going strong on stock bottom end.

I actually ran him me being all motor vs him boost only ( no spray). I think I did good. He only got me 1/2 truck by 120.

What was ur old set up. I ran 11.87@114 on H/C and 100 shot on low bottle pressure back in 08 in my ram. I plan on beating my old time NA but since then found this P1 for a great price and couldn't pass it up.

I had a Vortech system all lined up for my '07 before it got wrecked, was really looking forward to seeing what it would have done. I had my quad cab 4wd running 13.5s on an Eagle head/cam and 125 shot still on the stock trans and TC.

I was running 1 stage colder plugs. The NGK 4306's I believe was the plug. As for my mods. I'm running TorqStorm SC on 7lbs of boost with a custom intercooler setup. I also have a Crazy Jay Plus cam which is not a boost cam. I had the cam installed before I ever thought I was going to do a SC. I've also got longtube headers into a custom 3" dual exhaust (with no crossover), 87mm ported TB, 3.92 DTT rear. Tuned by AJ aka HemiTuner. I still have the stock trans and converter on the truck, though I do have a 3000 stall Edge converter sitting in the house. I also have a AEM high flow fuel pump instead of the stock pump.

Completely stock my truck ran a best of 15.3 the one day I took it to the track. Haven't been to the track since though.

When AJ tuned it the best numbers we got were 407hp and 400tq to the wheels. (I'll also mention I'm running 22" SRT 10 wheels so that could have effected the numbers, though AJ was very pleased with them).

And just to clarify what Steerman said, I haven't traded in the truck but it is for sale. I went out and got an 04 RC SRT 10 Ram. I couldn't help myself lol

I have the 4306s but what were your gapped to? I have mine gapped to .35 and just want to make sure that's right.
Nice trade! What was the temp on the dyno day. I think 407 was a bit low for having a cam even though it's not a boost cam. I've been reading that a centrifugal supercharger likes NA cams.

Thanks for the info!
