    i think i may invest in the remote switch for my electronic boost controller... that way i can launch at 9psi and then hit 15 once i'm in 2nd gear.
    You could go through all the work to find a taller 4th and getting a switch for the boost controller, OR you could just get a set of slicks.

      i'm pretty sure even slicks arent going to hook up in 1st gear, but i could be wrong.

                    eh, its not terribly exciting chris. and as jon said, the video isn't a black egt, so its not him. but hey, who am I to say watching a 14.3 run is boring?
                    No car! I soldz it. Now I have a truck. I like it, but apparently it has a hard time keeping up with a slightly modified 4WD protege with half the hp. Neat.
