Is the rear axel a 3bolt or 4bolt?

It is really good to see a VR4 racing.
I'll be happy to achieve what you are getting hence all the questions!!

damn thats alot of power on the stock box, i would have thought 4th would have stripped by now but i guess not.
least i know i can still run my stock box for a while longer in the lancer. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Found the problem!!!! it wasn't that the axle broke , the rear diff of my car is from an evo 3 , the hub axles were from a regular dsm 4 bolt axles , so they dont go in all the way in and the splines barely was used of the hub , i get 2 evo 3 hubs from a friend of mine from bahamas , and problem solved now goes all the way in...
Bad news it rains in orlando , so we will not be able to test tonight but probably sunday we rent the track in private session , to see how far can we go with the new changes in this project!!!! Thanks for your support!!!

Awesome setup and nice runs. Still laughing here a little at the results of that T88. Holy lag.

I saw this car at TurboTrix on the dyno. Could definitely tell it was making some serious power. I think they were having problems with the CAS plus coming off before redline or something. Top half track at Englishtown was pretty sick. Great job guys!

Update !!!!! we went 10.60 at 133mph 6.8 at 107 miles at the 1/8 with 1.51 0-60 feet, only problem we found was the anti-lag , is in the clutch pedal so everytime we shift it bogs a lot cause of that, we already fix it but it rains, next wednesday we go again looking for the low 10s ..... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif

Thanks a lot Rolo Lopez www.tunedbycft.com

Awesome! Can't wait to hear this car is all sorted out and running up to potential.

Thanks again for lending me the o2 sensor socket at Etown, NJ. That came in super handy, you guys all seem to be super friendly and easy going guys! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/applause.gif

If you think that was jumping down his throat you are a much more placid person than I am. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

We try again to go orlando speedworld but it rain, we decided to go to the other track in orlando call central florida road course , the only thing is that is an 1/8 mile , but since we redyno and retune some stuff all we really need to do is test, launch and run anything in the 1/8 will gave us some important info .

When we try last time it went 10.60 with 6.84 at the 1/8 mile with 105 miles per hour , first pass in the 1/8 mile tonight was 6.47 at 112 mph!!!!!! nice !!!! 1.51 sixty foot!!! that guaranted a 9 second pass!!!! only thing we need is a dry quarter mile for next week!!!! i keep my updates , later guys Rolo from www.tunedbycft.com
