I hope you got your tranny problems worked out bro. Let us know what the status of the killer FD is when you get the chance.

Well I got another tranny and I'll be putting it in next week (when I get off work) , hope this one holds out for a while.
I have another problem too , the e boost controller cant properly control two external wastegates , my boost spikes a lot . After I bought it and read the instructions it said that I would need their twin solenoid kit for use with two waste gates and the guy I bought it from said that they (turbosmart) wont sell it separate .!!!
What da HELL am I supposed to do with it now , I will have to call them up and give them a piece oh my mind !!.

not really much you can rip out of a FD fto save weight. If you get a titanium exhuast i hear that is about the best way to save weight. Next is a carbon fiber hatch, remove AC PS and emissons, carbon fiber drive shaft, and leight weight flywheel. I dont know if there is much more that matters.

Did you get your new boost controller yet? I can't wait to see what kind of numbers you put down at 20+psi! I'm sure I'm not the only one who is eager to see the results either. Make sure you keep us updated as to what's going on with your FD bro. Good luck at the dyno.
