I would like a fully manualized box option just so I can Dump and run. Trans brake or clutch setup.Yes its a BF turbo .Thanks for the input.p.s - I damaged the converter last week so I thought now is the time to get advise.

This could be due to the quicker the ET, the less time you have to get a higher MPH.It was also 27 deg when I ran the 11.1 so I don't think it would have had more than 380 ish.Went out this week and the first pass was wheelspin city through 1st and 2nd (ET streets), ran 11.8 at 127. Might be from all the rain and a not so well prepped track.It then went pear shaped.2nd run and heard a pop and then no boost, pipe came off the throttle body. I had the thermostat replaced that day so thought the hose clamp may not have been put on properly.3rd run and same thing happened, packed it up and went home very dissapointed.It turns out the bolt that holds down the TB on the PW TB relocation kit was not put on and as soon as the boost gets up the clamp has no hope of holding the hose on.All sorted now and hopefully back out this week. 1

Member 621 Member For: 16y 8m 4d Gender: Male Location: Central Coast Posted 18/02/12 04:58 AM Author Posted 18/02/12 04:58 AM Still after legit info before taking the two hour drive to see my tuner?Busted the converter on a hard 2nd too 3rd Manual shift with the sequential. felt the power drain out mid way through the pull.. everything went fine on the drive home, yet I had a very nice groaning noise at mid rpm until it shifted. Took it to my workshop and sussed it out started making a very nice click/rattle sound at idle in the bell housing until I clicked it into drive then the sound drops out... So im guessing Flex plate, converter, input or close there too.I am also after the Monsta torque website if they have one. google does not seem to show it
