So apparently I have some low end grunt now

Haven't posted much about it here, but over the winter I put a 3" exhaust elbow on my .60/.63 T3. Ever since then, the car will start building boost by about 2000 RPM or so.

Last night I was coming home, and to get to where my new apartment is, you have to go up a fairly steep hill. It was a bit rainy, so I started up the hill in first and the tires started to spin...so I shifted to second and barely gave it any throttle and I started getting a bunch of wheelhop. I looked at the tach and I was at 2000 RPM.

I had to feather the throttle until I was moving at a decent speed, otherwise the tires just wanted to spin. sheesh!
