Most likely he went up in smoke. Especially watching that fat, heavy, weird import showing him taillights! LOL!
Way to shine Phast.

Hey, Phil

If I wasn't already a moderator, I'd have to be reporting this thread to the moderators.

So the turbo is pulling well, huh? Does it want to break tire traction in first, or does your dragstrip experience with the clutch get past all that?

How about some details? Did you lower the C/R? Are you using high-octane gas? And when can we see dyno figures?

Hey, everybody, how about a whipround for a dyno run for Phil? What can it be, 80 or 100 bucks? C'mon Phil!!!!

Joe

Hey Joe!

it pulls well. I have a wideband so im running spot on as i can be. It pulls hard and seems to like the turbo. Im running stock compression and low boost, ill eventuall(long time down the raod) do something with ablock but thats way in the future. It will break them loose but not anywhere near enough to negatively effect track times, but i really try not to launch the car much as it leaves with a vengence, and i cant help but feel bad for the transmission

Sounds good, Phil. I'm glad to hear you have empathy for the differentials!

My gut feeling is the transmission should be good for an extra 80 hp or so, without getting brittle, shall we say.

But heavy abuse will break anything, so careful is the way to go.

Take care man

Joe
