Ken Gushi, good guy. I remembered him from a 1 hour TV documentary featuring him, Samuel Hubinet, and some others filmed in 2006. Show included a Drift day event, D1 demo at Sema and the U.S. Vs Japan event at Irwindale 2006 along with some other stuff. Also had Tanner Foust, Vaughn Gitten, Kawabata, Kumakubo, Ken Nomura and others too. It was a good plug for drifting overall.

Since the car is naturally aspirated, I wonder how much power it's losing above treeline? The ecu can only compensate so much for the lack of oxygen partial pressure.

I wonder if they are allowed to run NOS ??

They are going to have to come up with something for the higher elevation sections...

The ECM can trim +/-20%. They'll just lose power as the altitude gets higher. It's not a big deal as long as no one is running boost referenced to a fixed value.

The CCS-P Hood would complete my car. I need this in my life.
