I dont know what PPG is like nowadays but if they are anything like they used to be stick with the OS gear set. Although only a 2 wheel drive we have been using the full gear set for years now and its perfect

How many pumps are in that surge tank? and what pump are you running?

Yeh I think I'll be running os gear set agy synchros and galvs billet sandwich plate when I build the box I have decided but I want to see how long this one last first! Pretty pricey build I just hope I don't kick myself for not going for the more proven tougher set ups first up too soon!

So it's been a long time since I posted on here but the car is finally running! Big day on the dyno tomorrow!attachicon.gifImageUploadedBySAU Community1404984430.634811.jpg

Very nice mate, good luck with the tune! Looking forward to seeing how it performs :)

Car wasn't ready to pick up in the end so hopefully run in will be done this weekend!

Considering I drove it Friday and still have a broken leg I think I'll wait the last few weeks till it's better to get the full tune! Would hate for the thing to get away from me!

Finally got some power down today!! Still not finished need to fit some stiffer gate springs yet which will make it even more exciting!! But she made some nice power without braking a sweat which says a lot for this little turbo!

Bit of an update got another tune after sorting the gate springs and gate control now.

Made 626hp @30psi but loads and loads of torque. The response is ridiculous I will have to get a pic of the dyno graph this week but I think that is the absolute max the little gtx35 wants to push out the rear of it so for now that will be all unfortunately until something bigger is strapped on!

Another update though...

A RE401B with manual valve body has found its way into the car over the weekend to help with some up coming drag racing duties.

I'm sure this will get lots of hate! No doubt it will go back to manual one day but you can't beat a built auto for drags!

Having said that hopefully it makes powercruise so I can put it to the test!

    • Haha no I'll do that one tomorrow. I've been ignoring it. It's the 5.0 one I'm taking about. (There is a little X to hide the 4.7 one if you want)
    • So I'm going to have to keep ignoring the 4.7 update, or whatever version it is? Poop. I was hoping you'd put me out of my misery.
    • We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.
    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
