For a good laugh

Here's the one you asked me to post. Friggen me trying to get the 2-step to work after pulling up, starting to rev it then backing off thinking you were going to deep stage and then it took me forever to get back on the 2-step. :roflmao:

leaning wheelie launches look so much meaner than straight smooth ones lol

Congratulations Paul!

The funny thing is that on his 9.66 run I don't think it even lifted the tires on his car. I have to get the camcorder from my neighbor and download the videos to post them.

That proves that all the torque wasted on lifting the wheels is better used to push the car forward.

Your tune is what makes the car leave the line so well. All those datalogs on working out the launch paid off well. And by the MPH u know the car is making good power. You did a awesome job on the tune!!!!

Congrats Paul,

How much boost are you leaving with off the 2step?
I honestly didn't log those runs. I haven't even looked at the boost gauge either. My guess would be around 8-10psi and 12psi on the run when it pulled them.

Those are some nice runs man; I can't wait until I get my car finished to see what it will do.

I'm guessing they told you to leave because you don't have a cage to run 9.99 and quicker?

Those were amazing runs! Man that car rips, loved hearing it build boost on the line and yankin' the wheels and carrying them a good distance! I can't wait to finish buying all my turbo parts!

Paul has just a 4" tube off his turbo that makes a 90 right down on top of the radiator delete out the bottom of the engine bay. He has no real exhaust to speak of on his car any longer.

James is right, just a 4" exhaust off the turbo.
It actually is a 3" off the turbo that goes right to a 4" then down.


Ok I thought it sounded pretty open , I can hear the whistle in the video .
Did you notice faster spool or anything different by doing that?

Im still going thru the full exhaust, going to buy a tighter converter as well.
