    New best!

    No I don't have a two step. That would be nice for when my car hooks.

    New best!

    They didn't say anything about a cage. Not even to my buddy with a vert kenne bell terminator.

    New best!

    It was a near perfect day for the track and I managed a new best. First run I pretty much dropped the clutch at 3000 rpm and it bogged bad so the second run I did it at 4000 and same thing so on the third run I dropped it at 5000 and it hooked. I couldn't believe it. I've never been able to do...

    low speed fan not working

    I discovered today that I don't think my low speed fan is coming on. My tune has the set points changed. I think high is a like 194 and low I'm can't remember but I think it's like 185 or so. Here is the stupid question. Does the low speed fan typically run all the time when the car is up to...

    Couple Hp questions

    Actually its 12 to 13 psi so my vote is about 10 psi with twisted wedges but it will depend on the tune so there is no exact answer

    Tony is an awesome guy to work with! Out of curiousity why did you decide to upgrade? What are your future plans? Also, are you sure that's the 1st gear ratio you are going to have? If so how and that is HUGE!!! That would be the longest first gear I've ever heard of being in a manual...

    Have you considered J&M control arms? I love mine with the adjustable lowers. You should really give them a call and talk to them and tell them what you are looking at (mention maximum motorsports). They have a bushing design that is very unique. I couldn't decide between a spherical bearing...

    mulling idea of change...

    As for the tranny, you could just run a light clutch and keep the boost down a bit until you get something better a year or two down the road. I used my T5 with a promotion super king cobra clutch for 1.5 years before it broke and that was at around 15 psi. Also, why is your compression that...

    mulling idea of change...

    I can tell you don't want the nitrous, so I say sell it now. Why would you not want full power EVERY time you drive your car. If its a toy like you said why would you not want the power ALLLLLL the time? You could do what I did which was find a good deal on just a turbo and then you'll be...

    If I find a realllllly good day at the track maybe I could run like an 11.2, but I don't think I'm going to do much better than that with this setup and boost level and most importantly these wheels and tires. I'd like to get some track wheels, but haven't gotten around to it yet. I'm sure I'd...

    I wasn't suggesting that he try to scam someone! All I'm saying is he only has $350 into it and rebuilding it isn't that cheap and will take some time to learn and to actaully do the work. I'm just saying it might not really be worth messing with. Maybe buying a different one would be...

    I don't like to launch next to cars that will kick my ass and possibly lose control. its really funny when I wait and end up flying by the other guy three quarters of the way down the track. Stupid slow ass "race cars". I raced a couple drag cars from the line and won which was fun. I'm more...

    Finally got my turbo retuned - dyno numbers

    So I was beating on my car today and at WOT the car shut off and a pop came out of the exhaust. I was like great there goes the motor. Turns out it was just the MSD box. I got a new one at autzone and back on the road!!

    Finally got my turbo retuned - dyno numbers

    I finally got my car retuned and learned how much power I've had for the past 5 years. The HP is lower than I was expecting but not the torque. I found out my gauge may have been wrong for a few years. I've been thinking I'm at 15psi but it was only like 12. I would have pushed it more, but...
