Offer is good when you get back. Maybe try Liberty Transmissions they are always coming up with something new.

On an unrelated note, does anyone know of any mods or any shops capable of rebuilding the manual trans to hold more power. At a calculated 530 horses at the crank and an after market clutch I feel I may soon end the life of my tranny if it's not built up a bit

I wouldn't be worried about your ET as much as your trap.

That's incredibly low.

Yeah I know 107 sucks, I think it was partly due to my garbage launches, and alot more to due with the fact that my waste gate doesn't seem to be big enough, the car was boost creeping so hard I was having to step out of it halfway down the track. Just something else I need to work out, oh the joys of building fast cars haha.

450 whp car at our weight should trap 120 ish definitely something wrong. No way a 107 trap corrects to a 11.6 either thats like a mid to low 12 run.

Yeah I was by no means sayin that 107 would correct to an 11.6, that's just what the car should theoretically be capable of. The way I was running that night and having to get off the power for fear of blowing something due to the boost creep issue there's no way I would be posting decent times even if the launches and shifts were on the money

Seems like you could be having that problem most FI LFX's have at the track with throttle response.

Yeah, isint it something about the ecu limiting the throttle plate for torque management? Can it be turned off in a tune?

It is known to limit throttle input or torque until either a certain rpm or speed or something like that. I thought some of the tuners had found a work around for that or at least a way to lessen it somewhat. I know for sure Gretchen ran into this issue.

Stick, I had heard that they didnt have torque management from someone but I suppose they might.

If you're running a M6 don't think the TM is your issue. Maybe you clutch or something else not mentioned yet.
