Awesome. Get the LM1 on it and get it tuned properly. Just tighten the AFM to lean it out.

Tightening the AFM works wonders. I started mine at about 20 clicks, ended up closer to 30 by the time I got it all sorted out. I'm planning on some more dyno time to do some part throttle, off boost tuning just to dial it in the last 10% or so.

Make sure you mark the stock location so you have a reference point to work from.
