Basslink works well in open cabin cars (hatchbacks, SUV's, minivans etc). Have one in the sequoia and love it.
If you sell, let me know. I want my bro to put one in his minivan.
Sure. If he wants to try it out for a day that's no biggie. I paid like $170 shipped for it I think. I don't want to take a huge loss on it or I might just put it in the Envoy or something. If he makes a reasonable offer I'd sell it to him.

Small update. Been driving the car quite a bit. Seems to be running pretty nice actually. I have to go look through my notes, but the WG spring setup I have in there now must be around 17psi. Car feels real strong. Idle and cruising is pretty much perfect, which I think is a result of Shane's initial tuning from last year. Starting still has some room for improvement but I'm OK with how it is for now.
So with that being said, I've scheduled a few hours of dyno time on the 20th at RavenWorks for some WOT tuning. Assuming dyno time goes well and doesn't uncover any issues, the goal is to keep boost at spring pressure and setup some conservative fuel and timing curves. And then just enjoy it. It'd be very gratifying if I can hit the 500hp mark! But not really going for numbers here, just going for a solid conservative setup that I can enjoy for now. Then once I'm comfortable with it I can work out any minor issues and turn the boost up little by little.

17psi with 500whp should be fun! 3.0 ftw :)

RavenWorks dyno session today went extremely well with Bob. 1st pull was on WG only boost (10psi creeping to 13psi). Pull was smooth, zero issues, and made 450hp/380tq. Over the course of the next 2hrs or so, we had it up to 20psi. We were trying to keep it at a decent yet conservative boost level, and same conservative mindset for the tune, don't shoot for the moon. Ended up at 545hp/462tq @ 20psi (falling to 17psi by redline). Full boost around 4300rpm, rev'd it out to 7600rpm (again, conservative redline). These are heart breaker SuperFlow numbers (probably closer to 575 on a DynoJet). Also the WB reading were off by about .5-.6, we were actually right around 12.1. Extremely happy with the results. Car never skipped a beat the entire time, ran absolutely flawlessly. That's plenty for me to have fun with this season, so just leaving it at that. Next year if everything holds together, I'll go for more.
Huge thanks to Bob, he did a great job and was a pleasure dealing with him. Also props to Shane as he had the idle/drivability already dialed in so well we didn't touch it. Shane couldn't do WOT tunes because of issues, so that was the goal of this session. Lucky to have such great resources locally! Also might I add, the RavenWorks facility was in a class of its own, so clean and so much impressive machinery.
