Procharged since 6k, 37k on it now.

14-15psi @ 20* timing on 93 + meth.

Lasted longer than my 6R80 at least, that broke after 3k miles supercharged with just the stock kit. I have bad luck :lol:

Well it looks like you have the right solution on the way. Hate it happened tho

Yeah I'm not worried about my car at all there. I've heard nothing but good things about them. Enough that I was willing to tow the car all the way there from NJ lol. Thier prices were also very good compared to some other shops.

Got some info back today.

The trans pump and pump housing/plate broke and thats what locked up the trans. They also found hot spots on the clutches so they will need to be replaced too.

Waiting on prices and ETA.

Good news for me, not counting the engine labor the trans repair is under $1400.

I think I'm going to just cut my losses and put the stock motor back in. Even if I'm giving up $2k now, hopefully the motor won't go until it's easier for me to swallow that repair bill financially. A $3k bill is alot better than $10k right now for me.

Still going to put on the 2018 manifold though since I already bought it, and rev it up to 7700ish. Hopefully the motor will continue to live a long life.

Glad to hear the trans repair wasn’t too bad brotha. I understand and would probably do the same thing because 10k looks better in my pocket than in my engine bay lol. Well wait a minute, I already have 10k in there hahaha

Finally got my car back from JPC. Almost two months. I forgot what it sounded like lol.

Replaced broken trans oil pump
Replaced burnt Exedy clutches
Repaired damaged Circle D converter
2018 GT Manifold w/IMRC delete
Stifflers Driveshaft Safety Loop
Alignment to proper specs
Differential Oil Change

Once I get the tuning finished up and adjust boost I'll be doing some small things like heat wrapping the intake piping and possibly a second meth nozzle. Then dyno!

So happy to have it back :love:

This weekend I'll be re-hooking up my meth and sound system (disconnected while at JPC) so I can finish my WOT logs and really feel what this 2018 manifold can do!

Congrats on getting her all back together mate. Good to see you back in the saddle.

How are the MPSS working out for you at those power levels? I've been contemplating what to go with next on mine. MPSS, MP4S or something crazy like R888R or MPS Cup 2s.

Thank you!

MPSS do pretty damn well IMO. I can even get traction in some of 2nd. All my extra weight in the rear helps with that too though. Treadlife has been great. Rated at 30k and they say half that for staggered wheels, i was able to still get 22k out of the rears last year and the fronts still looked new.

Had a metal hub cap or something come flying at my car after bouncing off the median wall on the highway. Swerved but it still hit my bumper. Destroyed the bumper, completely stripped out my entire wheel well liner, destroyed my air filter, and put a big dent from the inside of my fender.

Four days after I got it back :tsk:

Ordered a new bumper and wheel liner, more parts tomorrow. Hoping everything will be here by the weekend

That's terrible luck, sir. Sorry to see this.
