the AFC is what forces your P7100 to fuel to the boost. there is a diaphram in there that moves according to the boost of the turbo. you can move the plate around to get more fueling. however if you have a dyno proven 400hp, I'd leave it or you'll get too much fuel and roast your turbo.

i have not had it dynoed, but with the stuff i have done it should be around 400HP, i think ill leave that alone though if it might roast the turbo, i was thinkin about cutting the stock fuel plate down to a #0. would that damage anything??

Authorized Field Change[:'(]. Sounds like you got enough mods on the pump side, maybe its time for a bigger turbo.

i was thinkin about gettin a turbo, but i really cant spend that amount of money right now, plus if i do that i would want twins, and that means i would have to buy a stronger clutch, oh yeah has anyone heard of the ATS Aroura twin turbo kit?? it runs about 5 grand but it has a small turbo and a larger turbo, i think that would be nice

they'll fit under a stock truck, rub a little turning sharp and hitting bumps (leveling kit took care of that). They are toyo m55's in 255/85r16's the rears are close (3/8 or 7/16 between sidewalls) So far they've been a really good tire. Quite on the road, awesome in the snow and on ice. Even better in the rain. I've taken her through the mud a few times, haven't gotten stuck yet. I recommend the sipeing (sp) les schwab does. I took mine back and had them do it, turns them into a great ice tire.
