Thanks man , There was a stock one right behind us that I didn't get the chance to run, but after seeing those pulls he didn't want any


Trans seems to be holding up fine (for now)

Very hard to hear with the bike noise in the background, but hell yes I was brake boosting. I wouldn't stand a chance just rolling into it, this snail takes quite some time to get cookin'

Yep, 100% stock top and bottom. I have AP2 retainers for over the winter.

Tires are Sh*t HTRzIII's

Speed based boost is your friend. The powerband is actually quite mild, even sitting on the brakes and unloading it still doesn't break free.

Hopefully getting a few more pulls in this week

Will keep this updated

Sounds like u have a very nice street set up is there a reason u didn't do a race gas tune?

Definitely just spent over an hour reading this entire thread. Sick build, learned alot, keep it updated! How is the Haltech as far as emissions inspection? Do you get to retain your OBD-II? I'm from MA, I'm sure NY is very similar.

Thanks for the props man. Being that I used to teach auto @ a local career and tech center, I wanted to keep this thread as informational as possible, so thank you for that!

In regards to emissions, I will be removing the Haltech unit, MAP sensor, EGR blockoff, and injectors to pass inspection when the time comes. The haltech unit has no obd2 functionality. KPRO is the only choice if you are looking to retain that.

However, I do enjoy that fact that the Haltech still retains the CEL and I have the ability to pull diagnostic codes, just like a normal ECU.

Update:

Was pokin' around under the hood over the weekend. The turbo screen looked a little "dark"

Took it off to find a compressor housing that has been slung with oil, and a decent amount of lateral shaft play


Not cool.
