Default my 88 GTA with a LS1 swap...Lil track vid.

I blew a fuse and didnt realize it until after the runs..these passes were made with about 875psi in the bottle.Bottle warmer wasn't working.Dont know how much difference between 875psi and 1000psi Bottle pressure,But will find out next week.

Check out the vid... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U88OCGTUpSw

Only mod is a LS6 intake.
