In any event, rentals are always ragged out, so their transmitions are almost always shot. This is just like your race with the auto 350z which you said was ragged out, but you didn't even know the guy or whatever.
You need to race one of your buddies and see how you fair. Or race one of mine and see.

isn't it true that you can rent a new Mustang GT500 or something like that? I am sure you have Bill Gates credit to rent it, but I think it is there... again very good numbers mrmeaty, but just wait until I get TT stage 2 and AEM EMS (you might be waiting a while but one day...)lol

really? the stage 3 can hold up to around 350whp... stage 4 i guess more like 400whp.. stage 5... don't really know. i havent decided yet between the 3 and 4. they're both fine for my goal of 300whp, but i'm sure the 3 is better for daily driving.. who knows?

What am I runnin?
my wallet is runnin on empty and my clutch is running away!
Stock! And at just 5psi, the FIRST TIME I took off at a light I felt (and smelt) that thing slipping!
The second time, I was like "hmmm...it feels like I'm peeling out, but I dont' hear anything..." That's when AMD was in the car.
I was going to get the comp stage 3 cause it's a disc style, but it's not strong enough. I figure, if I'm going with a stage 4 puck style, might as well go all the way with a stage 5.

Definitely go with the kevlar / carbon compound! Not sure which stage that falls under.

The stage 3 is not strong enough for 350hp, which is my imediate goal.

Hey, I think we may have another boosted tc in Vegas lined up for the group tune. That makes 4 NOT including mark.
I still have not hada chance to call the tuner in colorado, and I wont' have a chance as I'm on a business trip the rest of this week, but I'll call next week to get more info.
Matt, when is your kit supposed to be in? And how long after you get it will it be till it's installed?

We have already discussed it in another thread. When it came about, it was because 3rd gear at 45 mph will cause a good bit of vaccum instead of boost. That's what we usually raced at on the street, so I started doing it, and proved beneficial. The video came about when people kept pm'ing/messaging me wanting to know what Brake Boosting was. Sorry if you feel that it's lame, but I don't see why eliminating turbo lag is "lame". It's not the newest thing since sliced bread you know. Supra's drivers do it when they have a large single turbine, 350z drivers have just started doing it (due to the computer setup in the Z causing you to stall by trying to press the gas and brake at the same time). The Z community has found a way to bypass the computer from cutting power.

what's wrong with him making his car the fastest he can. Nothing wrong with that... I don't have the fastest tC in TN anymore remember. Brian (jester) has a built motor in his car.
