OOOOPs update

[insaneron]

Firstly I'd like to welcome back to the team after a long stay of absence, Steve Kenny and his wife Emma also Jim.

After a really good showing from the new set up at The Big Bang. I decided to turn up the Nitrous and play with a few settings. On a very tricky track we ran 9.7 seconds @ 151 mph off the trailer. But blew the tyres away so I turned down the nitrous on the Max Extreme,Softer launch and longer duration 9.5 @ 151. Run 3 no Nitrous off the line and 3 second build time. 9.2 @ 151 I did notice that I was almost on the limiter when I crossed the line.

Sunday I decided to leave the delay off the line but bring the nitrous in faster. OOOPS as you can see from the pick was not what we wanted. I think that the damage was done at Easter. with the tyres breaking free I short shifted into second at the same time the nitrous kicked in. As they say the rest is history. but I had my best ever reaction 0.009.

At the moment I'm looking at my options but I think that I'm looking at a bespoke Transmission such is the torque that were getting from the nitrous.

If you look at the picks you can see the difference between mine and a good set................

Looks like you shredded it well. Thats some awesome power you have there.

The 'Cast Aluminum Deep Pan' part sounds a little like a pizza.
Never seen bits like this, but then I'm not too clued up on auto's. i rememver you showing me your torque converter that was made for a standard car, totally destroyed.

The trouble is now that everything is made for it but dosn't bolt straight on. it has to be FINAL FITTED when I get it because there is so many different variables.

Do you want to borry my nitrous controller to see whats in it. Let me know when your ready for a refill.
