so to sum this up haha.. ive been battling some stupid issues with voltage and grounding and fueling and finding time to work on the car ... so after the last iteration of tuning ive just been cruising around on my low boost map 27 psi 550whp .. and after working through all the stuff my Buschur Racing trans decided to take a dump while im out cruising around ... not even romping on it .. amazing quality stuff there ...

so i ended up working a deal with a buddy and have a new Jacks trans with REM treated gears and man is that one amazing trans .. smooth as butter !!

and then a few days later i contacted an incredible tuner and he drove up to tune the car and we solved all my little issues and were finally able to make some power ... 895whp/598tq @43psi ... Chris Carbee of Slowpoke Tuning did an amazing job on that car and really made her come to life !!!!!!
