Did you guys figure out the cutting out/missing/fuel cut issue on the first pass or two?
Those turbos are killer, 1200+ capable! Nice work guys! |

The biggest adjustment we need to make was that the moron owner (me) is a noob and didn't insist on a transbrake. That's next. Once we get the launches right and the boost controller hooked up, we should do better. |

And the converter dialed in! Trans brake+ 2 step+ 10 psi @ the bulb= much much faster car
 Car looked good, quiet too! Congrats on the build, its gonna go fast when its done! |

From where the car was on Wednesday to how you finished the wknd is nothing short of amazing. IPS really went the extra mile for you and it was nice to see the all hands on deck effort all wknd long. You certainly deserve it. You haven't even started to come close to the potential of your car. The question should be how deep into the 9's will it go!!

I thought the car might have been too quiet and have considered removing the mufflers. But, then the "whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiir... pshhhhh!" sounds would be harder to hear.

I was glad to have the chance to have my car out for a good test and tune this weekend. Next time our launches should be better with some of the tweaks the IPS guys will make on it. |

That is one of the nicest looking engines I have ever seen in a street car. Kudo's to all involved.

Beautiful car!
Do you have any pictures of the custom shorties they made for your car? |

After having my car out for a bit of test and tune over the last month, we've decided to go with a Turbo 400 transmission. The guys at IPS talked to the folks at RPM Transmissions and they've worked it out so that we can make this happen in a timely manner. Also, we need a new driveshaft to go with the new tranny and Frank at the Driveshaft Shop is getting us a carbon fiber driveshaft. More updates will be coming soon as we get the new parts swapped out.
The guys at IPS have been absolutely terrific about the whole build process and tweaking the car to get the most out of it. I can't say enough good things about them.
