*** please keep in mind that I have no aspirations for taking this car into the 9's or 8's at the moment and it'll stay a 6 speed until i can afford to build a TH400, I just want to come across some liter bikes and supras and show them what I can do from a roll

***

good luck with the build,although why do you think you wont be able to get in the 9's with a 6spd?

mine is far from a purpose built track car,almost the opposite,but a set of slicks goes along way

just hate to see another 6spd car changed over in the quest for a good e.t.,when it is very attainable as just that

You can run the spring that will make the amount of boost you want or run a boost controller and make up to 2-3 x's as much as the spring pressure.

so basically i need to order a boost controller.... i would hate to have the car gated to 15psi for example when i only need to run 10 or i wanted to run more than 15. i'd like to have the car gated for 10 and control the boost up to 20psi. a boost controller is the next purchase
