When I get caught off boost yeah you can tell the difference. Fifth gear below 3500 rpms is slow. Geo Metros will pass you and you can be at full throttle forever. Just downshift and reel in Exotics.

 

Correct. That is what I am thinking. I think Shiv could of got me to 500 whp but i was telling him that 494 was good enough and he agreed. Guy with AEM and strocker kit locally only made 507 whp with alot of the supporting mods I don't possess.

 

i was just going to say,if that happens just downshift.i wouldn't know though,being on the stock turbo & all

 

that's truely sad that guys with stroker kits/standalones aren't making much more.

 

Stock turbo has its advantages.

 

the reg.twin disc esedy is still holding all of that power.i didn't think they could

 

Most guys get roadrace tunes and that includes me. Al and Buscher make those huge #s with aggressive drag race tunes. Not your everyday driver type of thing.
Don't believe the hype of those big #s being safe tunes because that is BS. Corey should be runnin 11.65s if that was the case.

 

I know it is semantics but I have the Cusco Twin. Same maker I know but seems to be holding and over 10,000 on this set-up and 13000 on my low 12 set-up.

 

corey ran a 11.65 last week.that's funny you mention it.

 

wait a min.this is your 2nd twin???

 

Him and Justin run that in the 1/8th.

 

ouch!

 

No my first. 23000 miles. 13000 with 340whp and 10000 with 400 + whp. over 80 launches at the track. No street launches. My car no like street launches.

 

how many miles on yer car???

 

29500 bra. 1st clutch out at 2700 miles and Clutch master stage 3 grinded gears/slow shifting and slipped when launching. Dumped it at 5000 miles. So 7 g on car and went through two clutches. No more street practice after that and slipping the twin has resulted in no TC failure. BTW My tranny was ***ed my first 5000 miles. Too much abuse from experimentation on street launhing.
