So, my neighbor Mike wasn't home to take the video, so I went to my wife for some help.....

No. - YouTube


























After a little more convincing, she agreed

This was a 5psi launch, first time I've been able to do it in the warm sunshine, a hot street makes for some pretty good hookup!

hahahah nice

 

'd guess the rest of the flex is coming from your frame?

 

probably so. The chirping is the LSD locking, I'm shocked the trash-lok still works so well in this thing.

 

nice man!

 

Well done!!

 

That had to be good on the suspention...


I need ladder bars bad...

 

Please excuse my ignorance; but how do you do a boosted launce with a manual tranny?

 

Either drag the clutch or keep punching the throttle in short bursts....

I suspect he didnt have much boost until he started rolling...

 

Forget about the truck. I think we need more videos of your wife

here is a real boosted launch with my truck. about 20psi.

I lock the e-brake up hard, then bring the engine up to around 2800rpms, start letting the clutch out, and giving more gas, not dropping below 2600rpms, as soon as the turbo lights (goes from 10psi and launches upward) I simultaneously release the ebrake, dump the clutch and go-pedal @ 20psi.

Bump. Good video.

 

gosh that sure sounds like its hell on the clutch...

 

It's a $1000 southbend, its meant to get beat on. The second I drop that clutch pedal, it locks.

 

I just ordered a south bend smf conversion rated for stock hp/tq on friday. If it holds 12psi and/or 15,000 gross I'll be more than happy. Keep that IDI rockin' man!
