Yeah. over 350 runs at dragstrip with stock drivetrain...just change my clutch for oem one at 41 000 km. Now I have 99 000km and again on the second clutch (oem). An I put 440-445 torque at wheel on 94 + meth (FBO) and 460+ on race gas. (custom map)

These threads make me go back on forth on whether I want an I or XI. I read something that says they can't take it, then I read something that says they take it with stride . . .

Whatever happens with Shiv's single kit and the XI's will probably make the determination for me. If I can wait that long . . .

+1, I hit low 1.7x on almost all hard launches (per vbox) softer launches are all 1.8x. Never hit a 1.6x on the street no matter how good the traction is though.

Truth is I think 450-500tq is way over what they should do, so in that sense I think I've forgotten just how great they really are for a car that only had 270-280wtq stock!

There is plenty of hard evidence for < 450wtq, it's when you go over that level that it's an unknown, at least in my opinion
