always in boost lol i like to drive it

* what went wrong with it if it took a dump
so far, i have a 3rd gear synchro thats on the way out. high rpm it will grind going in.


I dont expect it to last past summer once i get it to the 500whp mark. Only thing saving me so far, is its a 2.0 motor, not 2.4

well so far so good but its a ticking time bomb I know its gonna happen .I was putting down 463 / 304 for about 1000 miles then was putting down 501/314 pump 576/376 Q16 for about 600-700 miles and now putting down 522/338pump and 585/414 Q16 .Trans seems good so far one thing I will not do is launch it hard on the street and dont do burn outs either .I do run the shit out of it once rolling though . I have had it down the track a few times launching at 4600 , 5600 and now 6500 .I did buy two spare transmissions as back up but havent needed them yet .The car is gonna hit the track this week , and again on aug 6,7 at MIR for import revolution as long as all goes well .It will be my first big event with the car
