Has anyone used or is using a transbrake on their XR6 Turbo as yet? Obviously we'd be talking an auto that's biased towards drag racing.

no one has done that yet,( that I know of) my veiw is that it would shock the standed cv's to much.

Yeah, that's what I've been thinking too. Might need to wait on some developments on the CV front before jumping to the transbrake.

Out of interest what tranny is in that beast at the moment? Is yours the one with the 3sp?

that's Adams old car.Pretty sure its running a C4 or C9

Hi and welcome to the forum,

I was under the impression you already fitted a transbrake when you tidied up the the auto a few weeks ago am I wrong?

If not you should no be thinking about it get it done and have a go you, will drop 2-3 tenths automaticaly if your rear end holds together.

That is the one. 3 speed C9 transmission.

Can someone explain how a transbrake works?

The transbrake isn't it as yet. The car has to be taken back to get this finished off, as when the car was in the shop, I needed it before Easter, so we left it to get the car back on time.

A.T.M, im waiting to see what Nizpro offers in the way of CV's before anything else, as they'll be the first to go when the transbrake is released.

The trans brake allows you to hold the load on the drivetrain without using the brakes, so u build up RPM and Boost and when u release the trans brake it is all there on tap.
