This wasn't even a good race for us lol. We both spun and my belt was missing some ribs so I got some belt slip lol. But yes I am still going turbo'd.

My Ysi is for sale right now $2,800 for the blower and rr pulley. $3,500 takes the blower, bracket, oil lines, anderson power pipe, bov, 18% od crank pulley and the 8 rib pulleys.

Yeah I went into this knowing it was going to happen. when you have a manual car with an average driver facing a full manual vb auto car that has 130 more whp my only chance was his belt breaking and him loosing his blower lol.

Yea, pretty much no contest. Love how TC's front end lifts up, really shows just how hard its pulling. Lets see some track slips asap.

Might not happen . I might sell the ysi and get a turbo before I take it to the track.
