Well, last Friday I went to the track, I was testing a launch control integrated into my ECU program, I set it at 6000rpm..BC was at 15 psi, I notice that on launch control the turbo was building 8 psi of boost! Can you imagine? this is new for me 8 psi of boost at launch, anyways.. I wasn't worried about that..

The car was running great, 12' highs, 13 lows with the little t25...but I was spinning them slicks like crazy .I was having a lot of fun,


until...........

That's not the worse, I think that an axle chunk hit, or got stuck into my syncros because I loose 5th and gears are very hard to engage..

now I'm in the search for a new trany.. god damn, I should have bough raxle...

Yes indeed, Damn OEM's they never give any troubles, even launching at 6500 rpm's.

Those are the one's that are in right now..

From now one, oem's or raxle..
