Good times man, I was there when you ran before, I raced you once I think. That was the day freshsrt4 and me were battling it out. I will be up there in fayetteville next weekend to do a few test runs with my new set-up.

Why not I gained 29 whp with a TBE and no tune on my IX.

hey guy.... are you listing all your mods ? my front mount will be here this afternoon, still waiting on the upper pipe though, that will be here by the end of the week... going with a 3" DP that should be here by the end of the week i hope. I'm still waiting on my clutch, that will be here also by the end of the week but i wont have it installed in time for the weekend and break in period on it. I also have a wideband 02 coming in shortly, hopefully today but cant get it installed until i get my DP... nice to see you are back though

yes i should of known better then to use it... 2 step is not good on stock clutch..... which is why i am waiting on a new one, mine is slipping now. 2 step is great on carbon especially and carbon metallic, not on stock one.

watch what u say. carbon carbon holds great when launching, usually when u slip it first to heat it up, but be careful what u wish for in a carbon carbon clutch. a friend of mine up in hickory, nc tore his tranny apart (syncros went) launching with a rps carbon carbon clutch in his 9 mr and had only 420hp to the wheels. purchase a carbon clutch=purchasing a tre/shep tranny also. exedy twin hd is what i'd recommend unless u have an upgraded tranny.

seemingly in this forum, you have to state captain obvious type stuff, otherwise you have useless questions every 5 minutes.... shouldnt you be working .... anyhow, i ordered the exedy twin hd, i just need to get with you to see where you got yours installed and maybe make a road trip with me... i think a 2 or 3 car convoy would suffice or is it sufficient ... you tell me
