In first & second gear there was much wheel hop & spin. Still will have a traction problem to deal with when the Drag racing season opens.

Nice, a little wheel hop but it moves. How much RWHP?

We put the VR spacer back in with the ported components. Definately picked up some torque. If I had to guess I would say that its putting
out 393 RWHP & 390 TQ.

We didn't want to get it redynod with just the addition of a vr spacer,
We were close to 390 on the last dynojet dyno test & Tune. We are adding a ported "FAST" then get a dyno tune on that setup. Some
claim we may wind up around 414. Well certainly try.

Leon,
VERY sweet ride, especially liked the spinning and little side swoops at shifts! Real cool! Have fun and be safe!

Leon,

Sounding great, thanks for the clips! Your mods and Jeremy's tune will have plenty of torque to play with...you will be in the 400s for sure.

Hope you have a great New Year! Stay safe, talk to you soon!

Here are the videos to click on:
