solo, yep still on the stock 10 bolt. We did see a truck launch its tire and axle today at the track Made me think twice about these C-clip axles

Thanks too I'll get this turbo to make power one of these day

You'd think that 10psi from a turbo would equal 15psi from a s/c'er on the same car/ set up...finding out that isn't the case.

Wow! Can't wait to see it with a 12 bolt or 9 under it and launching it off a trans brake, should be a beast!

Frank, flashback yep, but that truck guy was worse than what happened to you, his axle and tire were almost all the way out, the axle and tire were touching the concrete barrier and keeping his truck up. At least it was easy to get a jack under it and they rolled it off the track

Kaos, No joke I need to go out there to KY and go pick Kp's brains on tuning...then I'll go over and help you out
