Sorry, no new stuff to report..............yet.
I am gonna go back to the dyno in the next few weeks. I am still getting used to the new power. I definitely have a healthy respect for the way the new turbos spool so quickly and pull the car right off the line. It's incredible to say the least. And that is at the low boost mode. I did try the high boost mode a few times. I only went all out once and thought that something broke because the car pulled hard then I heard screeching sounds and noticed that I was going about 25mph and all this smoke was starting to come up. I thought what the "f" did I just break the motor. I let up quickly then the car jerked and then I realized that I was losing traction. I hit it again and off I went. The reason I didn't think of it before is that the car never did that.....ever. And the car was going in a straight line, no counter steering. I guess the LSD was really doing it's job.
Will definitely update soon. Only new thing I added was a rail type tranny cooler in addition to my current tranny cooler to make sure it doesn't overheat.
