he didnt pull as hard from 2nd right off the bat as i thot. by 4th gear, he had about 3cars.
spiking 20, falling to 13 by 5700.
SOOO frustrating. car feels like it hits a brick wall.
im not an idiot. i read the instructions like 20x. i cant figure it out. i raise my duty cycle from the normal 60ish % up to 80 from 4500+rpms, and even raise the boost settings from 20 to about 23 from 4500+ and still cant hold for shit.
cant be boost leaks because the night before i was spiking and holding 20+.
my tranny is toast. has to be a bad syncro. at points, it takes me about 3x to get it into 3rd.
What!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seals blew again?? So are u gonna have it rebuilt??
I just sent the turbo shop that origionally did the rebuild a email. I told the guy I would prefer to bypass PTP and would pay for the rebuild on my dollar if I can deal with him direct. The few times I talked to him, he had great customer service and it seems to be an honest guy.
wasnt in the car. it was one of droks boys. he came in and told me. i got the ins. info.
ima look into replacing my clutch and/or tranny.
billet shift selector
new TOB fork
billet shift fork
syncro clip
3rd gear syncro
it will absolutely not go into 3rd gear at 7k, or ANY gear at 7k for that matter.

Yeah man, that sucks your boost is falling to 13. There has to be something simple you a missing.If you can keep that boost up, your shit is gonna pull like a raped ape. Steves and my car wont stand a chance.
I need to get ahold of Geezer and see if he can get me hiiked up with the dealer out in Modesto for a rebuilt tranny to. I am still getting that wicked whinning noise in second and third is poppong out on my shit too.
