On a slightly different note. I don't think I need to have my car dynoed. For what she ate yesterday, I have to be making 400+. This has got to be a new one for the turbo FB. I was pulling up through second gear when I lost the ability to move

I pulled the trans out today and found the damage. I sheared the teeth of the the spur gear on the inside of the input shaft. The only way that this could have happened was with 400+ being shoved through it. I'm proud of the FB. This is the first trans that she has destoyed due to HP.

Some pics? Sure!!!!





Oh My GOD. Look at the carnage!!!!!!

Man, I love the sound of my porting

Car is coming along nicely Josh. I know you can't wait to get the front mount on there. Trust me. That will drop your intake temps tremendously. At the same boost level, it will feel like you are running way more boost.

So, who all is planning to be at the meet this Sunday?

Anthony, if you need one, me or Josh probably has one lying around.

Josh, that is pretty cool. But, I told you that could zap you. Didn't I?
