Re: Video I took today of me boosting a little... (HXMan)
Hmm...I'd think that meant he had bad traction...not good
Yea, that is what I meant...bad traction. I am wondering what size tires he is using so I don't have quite the same problem.
The tires are really really good at holding all this power to the ground, though. I can completely drop the clutch at 3000 rpm and get NO wheel spin or squeeling. I am using Toyo Proxes T1-s 205/45/16 mounted to desmond regamaster wheels. If I had to speak to the issue of traction, I would say that I am doing pretty well in that department (koni shocks could be helping too). Losing traction at close to 9 pounds of boost in 1st gear is pretty inevitable....but I do plan to get Quaiffe LSD which should help that.
I am using a Tial wastegate.

Eh...Well I don't remember peeling out in 2nd and 3rd. I'm not sure it happened in this video either. I lost traction at the top of 1st, and usually if I shift fast enough it will chirp going into 2nd.

Re: Video I took today of me boosting a little... (ken)
I remember when i got my turbo installed, Clutch was grabbing everything seemed perfect... the person who installed it is a very good drive. He took me and my friend for a spin and he made the car chirp 1st 2nd, 3rd and throughtout the process all he was gettting was torque steer.
The car was violently moving left to right.
