Upgrade Horsepower and Clutch Pressure

Well, I finally installed my Hybrid Turbo from JMTC AND the Kevlar Clutch with 30% More Strength!

The Kevlar Clutch has to be driven "EASY" for the first 1500-2000 Miles.

The Turbo I am going to run easy also...still have to upgrade from my NM Exhaust (2 3/4 Inches) to a Handmade 3" Open Exhaust
to help and save the Hybrid 50mm Turbo.

It took Toni and I about 6 hours to do the complete installation...Not Too bad!!!

Just started the "Easy Drive" with about 100 miles.

I can feel a bit of "smoother power" with just a slight acceleration and can't wait until I add the New Exhaust,

I am going to Sell The Stock Clutch/Flywheel (26000 miles) and the NM Exhaust and Aftermarket Catalytic Convertor (1/2 as much Cat material and it Super Coated.

Just WON my last AutoX for The Year a Week Ago with 14 Cars in my Tire Class,,,I run TSMF...and with 185 AutoXers I had the 10th Overall Place!
Can't wait to see how these changes will pull me away from my competitors!
