After the shakedown, we detected a few things that we needed to improve to realize the full potential of the car. That includes a two step, boost controller, new stall, driver's side turbo, screws on the wheels for the slicks, and new front runners. We are hoping to get a GForce1320 modified cradle and solid bushings installed. Lot's of progress being made and hopefully we can get it together before the tracks shut down for the seasn.

So we are having trouble on the dyno. The car seems to be pushing through the convertor. We realized the transmission was not set up for the heat of the turbo so we went to Sullivan Motorsports in Dallas for some help. Nate opened up the fluid path to the convertor, and smoothed out a few wear and tear areas. We tested the tranny and convertor on his tranny dyno and it stalled correctly. Got the tranny back in the car at the shop and start tuning tomorrow.
Tuner has a full plate, needs to set up the boost controller, fuel controller, add the bosst a pump, then adjust to the convertor. We are going to give the current convertor one more shot to see if the tweaks fixed the problem, then we have picked up some contact information from a sponsor on here that we will call
Well we took her out on the road today and got the same results we had on the dyno. top speed was 112. Hit that at 6300 and climbed to 6900 and that is all we could do.
