as in, your 500hp clutch you thought was so awesome is going to be slipping its ass off in the economy tune.. have you factored in the budget for something better so you can USE all your new horshpower?

It should be ok for awhile.

It will be the next thing he will need to do, but 95% of his driving probably won't be at 500+.

Spoke to Dave. Going to use the studs I have here and the springs and pr's were shipped today.

The studs were the hold up, so whenever they come in I will shelf them.

Your turbo, uppipes, downpipe, fuel bowl, HPOP, fuel lines are all off. Starting on removing the injectors now.

Maybe something was wrong with your clutch, but I daily drive with a sprung hub ceramic dual disc everyday in and out of traffic and it's actually nicer to drive than my old ceramic single disc was. Can still shift it fast enough to only lose 5psi during shifts too. :thumbup: Built autos are nice, but there is nothing that I can see wrong with a dual disc.

Try re-lighting an s475 with a 200% nozzle. Stage twos and a drop in wouldnt be all that bad.

More or less it was the shudder off idle and the odd wont go into gear shifts that made me go with the auto.

With the s475 once my TC locks I lose some boost when the RPMs drop. I couldnt imagine trying to drive this truck with a stick.

Probably middle of next week.

Tank and filter bases will be the hold up.

The truck will probably sit waiting on those for a few days. Little did I know that the donaldson filter bases would be MIA from EVERYWHERE.
