Recommended Posts

As i said in the post in the members area, i was completely blown away by the way dudes car took off from a standing start.

It seemed to drive perfectly in slow traffic round town but when you hit the gas it felt like you had instant boost . totaly mental !!

I'm already saving , got to have one !!

I took Dudes out for a little trip today!

 

Very VERY lively!

 

...Did I mention how LIVELY this now is?

 

It was set up in TT mode - and had loads less lag than mine normally has in sequential

 

Car is now an animal (AND driven by one) !!

 

Sorry but I gotta get me one of these - CJ I take it back mate - stick it on your shopping list!

Paul im thinking along the lines of Hybrids and the Torque converter.

 

Tell me truthfully how it felt cos i had a babblin John on the phone Monday morning all excited like a kid with a new bike...lol

 

Am going to come try very soon, but is it as GOOD a difference as the man (very loose term) says?

 

And what sort of lag are you getting from the Hybrids on their own...?

Pauls lag is terrible , push throttle go boil an egg , make a phone call and come back just as its spooling !!! (you know what i mean Geeza!!) But i told you to be patient i have a UK with hybrids (must be a masochist) waiting for its Hi-Stall (Toyota have no trans fluid) come down and i'll take you for a spin in it then you can have a drive yourself , if your really lucky i'll take you out in a mans car while your here !!!!

It controls the amount of slip that happens in the box before it 'locks' and you have proper drive , this allows you to be doing more revs (and boost) when you leave the line or kickdown , you need to drive/have a go in mine before you commit , Hi-stalls are a black art in the uk i used them years ago when building the drag racers, you'll beat many a badly set up big single with this mod (dragstrip).

Not being funny if you wanna research it sit up all hours like i did ;)
