    turbo E30 wheelstand video

    For those that havn't read my build thread, I finally got a good video put together of my car. This was at 20 psi boost. I intended to turn it up and get in the 9's but my boost controller stopped working.

    Man, that is some good work!! If ever there was a case of "got a lot more left in it" this is it.

    When you go auto are you planning to follow the trend of using a C4, or going with a glide or something? Either way, I can't wait to see how you approach it.

    After researching literally every domestic transmission option in detail I will be going with a TH400.

    Cool. I can't wait to see how you adapt it to your engine/setup. Seems like you don't always take the beaten path, so to speak.

    I have it planned out already and have started ordering some parts but I have a project I'm working on for someone I need to finish first. I will be going my own way on this one but it won't be to unconventional. I want to go more custom than I am but have to stay nhra legal. Nhra rules are kind of a wet towel. It's time they come into this century.
