Anyway..... lol


Upon a random greeting from a coworker today, the truck now has a name... Those of you that know me know my last name is Flowers. Well today I was greeted as Flowerstroke and it's stuck like glue lol. I thought that was pretty good so Flowerstroke it is!

Lol, sounds good Flowerstroke

I must say though, I have to agree with everybody else about driving your truck to any event you drive to; especially with consideration to how nice it is. But, I have to recognize that it's not my money or budget. Soooo... But, still...it's Flowerstroke, not Flower Wagon lol

Looks like he needs a couple more light bars. It might be a bit hard to see at night.

Well, she's up and running!

Needs lots of gate tuning as it pegs my CTS real quick. Also will be needing a BOV because when I let off the throttle the boost spike blows the boot off the hot side pipe. Anyone have a BOV for sale for cheap? Tired of spending a ton of money on this thing for a while lol.

I haven't gotten on it too much but going down the highway at about 75 and rolling into it it gets deep into the 40+ psi boost range in a hurry! They also sound freaking retarded lol. I love it so far!

this a kit ??
As far as I know it was just a one-off thing.
What are your egts like?
Freaking awesome. Cruising at 55 (5th locked) it's at about 6-9 psi and 600°. 75 it's at 10-12 psi and 725-750°. I haven't looked too much at WOT EGT's yet because I've been watching boost and back pressure mostly. Can't be much over 1100-1200° though if even that. It is absolutely smokeless on Gearhead tunes unless lugging it or brake boosting.
