I need to get on the dyno to get actual numbers, but I can tell you that there is definitely a seat-of-the-pants difference.

Now, to be fair, I was running 9psi with my Allen kit and I'm now running 12-13psi with my Lighting conversion.

Looks great man. I look forward to see the numbers. I would like to see the differnce of 9 psi with my lightning swap to 12psi, your swap. Ive been trying to talk my buddy into sending the eaton to apten instead of a lower pully. Can I ask what you paid to have apten to do the work and how long it took from them?

The shipping time takes the longest.
5 days shipping, 2 days porting, 5 days for return shipping.
Of course, you can pay for overnight shipping, but that would had ended up being more than the porting itself.
Porting was $475 when I did it last year.

you could do a swap if you can't afford the down time. they send you a ported eaton and then you return yours. they do hold a core charge but if would beat the down time!!
