you have a fast car none the less, but that clutch is KILLING him on redline shifts
yeah. he wanted me to drive it and push it in first gear. shifted just fine every time i shifted the car actually. he had me do 3 pulls in it and it grabbed fine every time i shifted. in the first run the clutch was good. we recorded a second run from 20 where after the first shift, his car fell on its face and we heard a pop. obviously i flew up 5 cars and then slowed down after that. he needs to get that sucker in. and i need my boost upped and a tune

g20- i love it. however i'd go john shep next time around. waited 4 months for my transmission. never going through tre again. i must commend the work but the terrible customer service and downtime is a total turn down.

lol. ill be sure to turn my boost up to 24 where it regularly is, get it tuned and run him again when his clutch is in.

his clutch is slipping and i have an ACT clutch and a TRE spec transmission so when i shift, it grabs. period. everyone always tells me that when we run, and i shift, i always stop their pull and they ask if i am power shifting.

i've never once powershifted but i guess the lag of a regular transmission is just that bad in comparison to mine

what kind of turbo are you running? 35r as well or 30xxr?

your driving does need a tad of work bro

i ran 12.41 @ 110.6 on my old shi*ty tune, before my good tune, before my evo9 turbo.
I'm running the AMS 50 Trim turbo kit upgrade on my EVO.

Garrett Turbo, dual ball bearing, .63 A/R hotside
