Not really. Some autos are f**king shit. Like the one in the bf xr6 310kw version. I changed gears around same time as him and lost no ground what so ever.

They only have 245kw, I've run against a manual in mine (michaels xr8, was pretty even race off a roll) and every gear change he dropped back a bit just from the gearbox

I rode dirt bikes from a young age (pee-wee 50 types), started off small and ended up with a 150 which I sold at 16 - rode only once every month or 2 so not too much.

Got my Ls on the 1 day course, they expect you to know how to ride and basic controls. That being said I hadn't sat on a bike for about 5 years still passed fairly easily, you'll be fine. If you're worried just do the 2 day course, seriously though don't stress its easy.

As for on the road, a bit weird at first.. just doing 80 or 100 seems like your flying. I just took it easy, didn't weave or go to the front of the lights at first. After a few months you get more comfortable, still I always wear gear and don't try to be a hero. Good fun though. Do it! :thumbsup:

lol I had a pee wee 50 too.. That's the extent of my experience. Wouldn't know how the gearing works but I'm sure I'd pick it up quick enough. I'll probably do the course they have listed as being for those with no experience..

This one was running e85 and had 340rwkw

Yeah if you haven't had experience with a bike clutch and gears definitely do the 2 day course. Because they don't go through that at all on the 1 day course. They pretty much throw you on the bike and say do some laps, don't want you ripping the clutch out and falling off the back :P

We get it man your car is like so totally fast nothing could ever keep up

For most people though its not just about going fast ie comfy ride, plush interior etc

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
