A little update, the car is running great. I turned up the boost to 20psi and it pulls like a rocket. I still have not worked out the speed from the CAN bus to the MS3 so first gear is useless. I took it to the track and it ran a 12.4 at 127mph. Horrible 60' because I could not control the boost level per gear. It gained 30mph from the 1/8th to the 1/4 mile. If I can get the 60' down to 1.6s which is not unreasonable it could pull a high 10s ET. The plan is 30psi on ~E50 fuel.

Great news!! I now have MS3-Pro talking over the CAN bus and have A/C working with the factory controls and all four wheel speed sensors for launch and traction control. I'm hoping to dial the launch control in and see what the car can do at 20psi and then get working with Ethanol and turn up the boost.

So update on the car, I just completed converting it to automatic with a TH400 and I must say it's a blast. The transmission is a built unit from Turbo action with a manual valve body and ~3800 stall converter. The car is very responsive and not what I expected being automatic. I have an extra driveshaft I modified from the stock CF unit for the th400 if anyone is interested. I have a new aluminum unit coming just to be safe at the track but this one works.
