Default Had my first semi-launch on my VAST kevlar clutch and stage 3 power.

I was at a light and an STI pulled up next to me and revved HARD. That thing was incredibly loud and surely not stock - test pipes maybe and who knows what else.

So I revved back and the driver and friend kinda laughed as if to say "whatever, dude". So it goes green and I launch and they do as well. Went to maybe 70-75 mph and shut it down. I don't know how many cars I had them by - they were well out my peripheral and I shut down and hit the brakes hard to make my turn. They roared by and gave thumbs up.

Conclusions:

* Love the clutch... will report more with a full stage 3 review when I get the proper ECU back.

* Even running just 20psi peak (for now), the modded STI did not fare well.

* I need a better boost gauge pod!! The thing fell out during the launch!! Perhaps time to drill the vent.


Note: I changed my screen name because I never liked it. Friends call me The Godfather, so it seemed more fitting...

Default A clue: when I call friends, they don't say "hi" or "hey"... they go "WAAAOOOOWWW!!"

and maybe a "Watch me now!" </James Brown>

All this and I'm a white guy that can't sing or dance...
