Found the problem in the Transmission... Hey y'all im finally getting all the bugs worked out of my car... Transmission slipping = converter's fins bent...
Talked to a couple of guys at TCI - AWESOME customer service
... hats off guys... they hooked me up with a full race converter 4000-4400 that will handle my HP range w/o a problem... Just wanted to let y'all know that a TCI SSF3500-3800 for a boosted procharger @ 12-15psi was tooooo much and bent the fins... Unfortunately I was directed that the converter i broke was ideal for my setup... Trial and error proved that wrong, haha... Just 11 passes to break it... eeek
I'll post new times this wednesday - the 28th - when i test at milan...

WOW, it's all that torque bud... no wonder it came apart! Glad the guys at TCI got you taken care of, and you got the converter suitable for you setup! Let us know how it works out, good luck at the track man!
