Pinky, what boost level are you speaking about? I believe 6psi and no hard launches (because I never drop the clutch) will be fine for the car. Up to .5 bar seems to be fine on the engine and drivetrain if not drag raced so since I dont drag race I do not think I iwll have too many problems. Just curious as to what you were speaking in reference to. thanks, Anthony

you are right. I will have it set at 6psi and I never drop my clutch. I drive agressively but never launch the car. I will get a new clutch for sure but am hoping that my rear end hold out until I have enough money to buy a J's 4.44 and a new diff from Kaaz. -Anthony

Well, if I have the builted motor with lower compression.......can I still use my stock ECU w/ e-manage? or do I need standalone system?

Honestly? You can "rig" it to work but it's not recommended. If you have the means you really should get bigger injectors and a standalone. Just my opinion though.

for a point a reference, as of now, not saying it will not happen, but cjb with 400+ to the wheels has not had a problem with the rear yet. He doesn't drag the car at all though. So I assume that if driven agressively, but not like you don't own it, the rear should hold up long enough (maybe even really long) to get a new Kaaz diff, comptech bearings ect. I agree with blackS2000Turbo in regards to the ecu and injectors.
