Nice numbers! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
I'm leaning more towards UEL, the sound the headers bring out is just too nice to not consider haha, but EL still aren't out of the question. My next investment is going to be my gauges then hopefully soon after i'll start working on picking up some headers along with overripe and front pipe.

I'm glad Vortech stepped up and finally made a compressor that lived up to the original claims
You almost made me question myself there, but the standard pulley is indeed 9psi.

Thanks! I'm pretty happy with what it put down with no revisions to the first tune i've gotten. Hopefully I can squeeze a bit more out of it. Once I complete the rest of the exhaust that should help as well. @skatery1989 definitely put down some impressive numbers on e85 which has me considering that route as well.

I believe vortech has stated that their kit is compatible with the AT. I would probably message @Brian@Vortech to be sure though.
