Thanks to you for paving the way and doing all of the guinea pig stuff with the different stalls. Without you I wouldn't be making this post and I thank you. I did get your call too but I was racing a SS when the phone was ringing

TWO THUMBS UP FOR THIS MOD! I am a *very* happy man.
No problem, I am glad someone benefited from my $2K guinea pig / research project. I have thus made an educated guess and in fact went with a VERY low stall of 2400, as my TT setup will make 100% boost by 2800 rpm and I do not want to be sitting there at 2800 rpm and spinnign tires uncontrollably. So at 2400, i should be putting down insane, yet controllable amounts of torque.

Max, I would love to see a dyno of this, and see what difference you see. I predict a 3-4% increase across the board. But as we all know, it is the launch power that you gained with this mod.

Very happy for you.

The car is not Nitrous it have a Greddy TT and we dolble check the memory of the boost gauge and was on 6.8 psi... so something ware wrong... I'm guessing the Timing also, someone said that the e-manege have a bad timing set up... they gonna open the engine as soon they recieve all the forged internal next week

I have been thinking TT for a while now, but think I must go this route now instead!! It sounds as though I would have to do it anyway if I went FI and it should help out quite a bit for an N/A car off the line, which is where it really needs the help anyway. What did the final cost run for this mod installed and how long did it take all together to get the new converter? BTW, do you have to take the stock one off first, making the car down for a period of time, or is it a completely new unit that gets sent to you?

Thanks!!

You have to drop the tranny and pull the converter out of the housing and send it to Eder and they rebuild it, better, faster, cooler, even paint it with anti corrosion. I overnighted mine. He currently has a special of $50.00 off which is like $392.00 plus labor, I paid 500 for labor that part and shipping is all up to you.
Expect one week downtime to be safe. This is the 3rd race car I have restalled and love it.

I am taking the video tonight on the way to work (leaving in 30 minutes) I will be back in the morning and I need an mpeg hosted temporarily can anyone help.

Be back about 0430 5-2-04

Thanks,

The video is done. I did two WOT's in D and flew past a CHP, I had to do 144 mph (camera rolling) because I had 15 minutes to be to work. I also did two burnouts. One in D and another in 1st all the way up to 7k rpm's, I was sideways. It's an awesome video.

I'm coming on an on ramp and punch it and a CHP motorcycle is sitting there as I fly by him ; he wasn't on his bike.

I'm having problems with this crappy software and XP detecting my Sony TRV460 Camcorder.

I'm ready to upload it it if I can get windows to see the camera.

I can play the video on my PC so I know they are communicating.
