I like.

How many UTI graduates you got working on that ride? I went to school with a BUNCH of Puerto Ricans, not sure which part of Puerto Rico any of them were from

Seen the post on the 4g61t board, I really like it, I just wish I could find a clean chassis to build up :)

My best et in the 1/8 mile is 6.0 at117 mph, shifting 1st to 3rd I pulled the shifter to hard and I mised 2nd this was my first pass it's the one in the video, since then i've been having problems, the car is setted at 40 psi and it' s only making 27psi and I don't know from where the boost is ecaping, I think my wastegate is not closing like it should. I still haven't gone to the 1/4 mile yet. At this time I'm runnig on c16 fuel only I have a NOS system to lift the converter to the stall I want (6000 rpm) but as soon I let go off the transbrake button the NOS system turns off. I'll be making some changes to the motor thi days I'll keep you guys informes. If there's anyway I can help you don't hessitate to contact me.

fucking sick. you took the ugliest car ever made and actually made it look good :shock: good job my man. you might want to try swapping out your wastegate spring as the compress sometimes and that might be your boost problem.
