I'm sure you will get another clutch and be back at its. Very impressive for sure.

Still working with Mantic on the clutch, should have a update on Big boost and e85 in the next few months. There have been a lot of changes.

Did you go with a boost controller setup?

Leash Performance Boost Leash set up on C02 so we can run minimal gate springs but ramp in power infinitely. C02 control gives you the best flexibility to add as much power as the tires will hold in each gear.

Nice. I am curious how the leash bbg compares to eboost2 bbg. I have pretty much designed out how I was going to setup eb2 with micro switches and 4 boost groups programmed.

Also very interested in the minimum you can achieve with almost no spring, i.e. regulated by the flow of the piping.

I was going to ask what spring you have now? I was getting 12 psi on the 7-pound spring. I then went with compressed air and no spring, just to try it out while trying to get some lower pressure springs. It seemed to work pretty good. I have modified the 7-pound spring and am getting around 8 psi off of it. I'm hoping to get first gear to hold traction with that. My 4L60e tranny is down right now. I'm waiting on another one that has a 2.84:1 first gear instead of the 3.06:1. I'm also going with 15" tires. If it still won't hold the 8 psi in first and the 2nd gear shift, I'll try again without the springs and get the boost lower.
Oh, I forgot to mention that I am using the Cortex EBC.

Leash controller just counts the amount of time you cycle the clutch pedal to indicate gearing, no micro switches. More for drag racing but can easily be manipulated on the street just by bumping the clutch pedal.

This seems to offer pretty easy proper boost by gear

I have looked at that one. I'm still leaning towards the eboost2.

That's what I'm using. Still learning and I'm getting all the help I need from them thru email. I send Christopher my tune and logs and he helps guide thru what I need to change.

I looked at them all and played with most of them before going with the Leash, it seemed like the best designed unit of the bunch of the customer support is amazing. Not to mention its set up for C02 control out of the box.

I'm using compressed air.

Same ****, controller still needs to be capable of running it though. A lot of them do not have a provision for C02 or a compressed air.

And most do not care where the air source comes from in terms of control


Although something dedicated to the likes of CO2 might use it with less wastage than a controller not aimed towards that.

The Cortex people suggested the compressed air so I figure it is a good fit.
