You need a Micover for your GoPro. Use the open back for the case, and put one on it. All but kills wind noise, so you can hear that baby spool!

7-22-14 Update

Unfortunately, I ended up biting the bullet and switching to a 4l80e this past winter... Got a killer deal from a buddy and couldn't refuse going automagic.

Car now has a built Transformance 4l80e... Along with a FTI triple disc converter, B&M pro ratchet shifter, and all controlled by a Painless perfect torc trans controller. Couldn't be more happier with the car but, I sure do miss the six speed regardless

Car works perfect now with twin Tial MV-R wastegates and rips with the automatic. Feels twice as fast on 12 psi now than it did on 26 psi last year with the stick! Cannot wait till the Street Car Takeover event next weekend in Indianapolis.

I should have some new pictures coming soon and a couple changes to the car hopefully.

Awesome picture a friend took at a local "street" event a couple weeks ago.


Some videos recently

Turbo T/A vs Nissan GTR

Race with a very fast local 240..


Messing with boost controller (quick video)

Also here is a couple videos from the local event a couple weeks ago

Great stuff man, that thing rips for sure. What kind of boost are you keeping it around now since the auto swap? What stall speed converter did they spec you with the big cam and what rear gears are you running?

Fixed the second to the last video. (double posted the gtr video)


I've been keeping it mainly on wastegate springs, which is 12 psi. Turning it up a lot more this weekend for Indy Street Car Takeover. Then hoping to put it on the dyno at 28-29 lbs. Was able to get some final tuning done last night since the auto swap.

I can't even remember the stall speed FTI spec'd out. Just gave them the build sheet and they took care of me. Awesome customer service and business! +1 for FTI converters.

Rear gear is still a 3.90. May change that over the winter but, car seems to be working well for now.

Curious to what other internals you used on the build, Rods/Pistons and crank.
