Sweet first outing, I was wondering when you'd have that thing out. Looking forward to seeing it put up some #'s when it's finished!!

Thanks guys and yes this is definately getting me anxious to crank the boost up some, but I'll have to wait until the forged motor goes in!

Exploder: IMO after running the car at the track the only place I will ever miss changing gears is maybe on the street playing around but on the track the auto is the only way to go!

I was supposed to but the company that sponsors my brother's race car wasn't able to get me signed up in time, so I'll just be watching. I was really wanting it though because this thing is going to shine in the 1/4!

on a turbo car it does matter, with a manual you loose boost on every shift.

been there done that. I made every pass in my car with the 6 speed with my right foot planted to the floor and slamming the hell out of the shifter, and when I would look at my HP TUners log of the pass you could see the boost drop by at least 50% on every shift, this was with a t67 q trim turbo that spooled stupid quick on stock cubic inches.
