the Beast is alive and well. I had to fix a couple minor things, but she's running STRONG now. :chuckle: currently tops out around 7.5 psi. I could push it more, but the transmission doesn't want to!
Enjoy!

Auxiliary ATF cooler required, at the least.

Give me a call next time you are in Austin as I happen to have one B&M that will work great.

Surprised you didn't go the way Sijoko did his.

I'm actually running an ATF cooler, plus an added oil cooler for the motor, plus a cooler on the rear for the turbo oil (separate system)

Sijoko built this one. :biggrin: It is a LOT easier (and less hours) to rear mount than do what he did on his... mine might even spool a tad quicker - he'll tell you that as well. Only difference right now between his car and mine is with his high stall TC, he's in boost from a standstill.

Man, that thing sounds like a jet ready to take off....Bret's car is a monster with all the new found power. All he needs now is a high performance trans and some big brakes....maybe some stealth paint too :bigthumb:

I can hook him up with some big high performance 6 piston 2 piece rotors brake kit for the front and rear with whatever design rotors that come to his mind, wavy, drilled, slotted, or all 3.... website is in progress. coding everything (HTML 5, Java, CSS, PHP, XML...ect.) from scratch is a B@%#$ so I'll take any orders for the brakes in pm with any additional information needed, hoses are undergoing testing right now.

Hard for me to tell from the videos, that is your a/f ratio displayed (large font), and the vac/boost in smaller font?
I love the video with the 3-4 shift at about 110. I've always wanted to make the 3-4 at redline, but still havent found a clear enuf stretch of open highway in daylight (too old to drive that fast at night....). Best i ripped that shift at 115.
nice sound!

Some of the roads around here have been resurfaced, and when they do its like gravel sticking out of asphalt... Loud.

Just got a Go Pro today as a present! So I'll try and get some better vids and on smoother roads. I'll get one at idle and backing out of the driveway, definitely sounds great.

She'll definitely need a beefy trans rebuild soon! :gapteeth:

and Yes the big number is AFR and the small is boost. I'll flip it in the next vid, so big is boost. The 4 down to 3 shift was uninentional, I usually put it in 3 on the highway for a pull, but forgot I was in D :crazy:

The beast just turned 100k miles the other day - wish I had a pic of it!
