    I'm currently running a 999 Trans with an older jvx Trans brake, the converter is an old turbo action that we had so it is all wrong but works for know. I am gonna have Kenny at PTC do a new one as soon as I can get the funds up! Think it should go some low 6's maybe high 5's when get the bugs out.

    A few updates, installed a new PTC 9 1/2 converter that Kenny made for my combo, and switched to e85 drove about 60 miles so holley could self learn and it did very well!, took to wheel Dyno and made a few soft pulls, best was 712rwhp @ 5800rpm @12psi boost, still developing a surge above 6000 rpm so didn't turn it up, think it is still just really rich,at upper rpms. Will keep working at getting the bugs out, hope to take to the track soon! 20160419_100251.jpg #ad

    Doing a little changing around, since went to E85 I'm going to remove the w/a intercooler, heat exchanger and pump, also replacing the 4 hole throttle body with a single 102mm and elbo, then running a straight pipe from turbo to tb, thinking of installing a w/m kit for just in case, what you guys think?

    I would put a ice cooler in the trunk and keep the water to air you have it already but that's just me.

    Did you end up removing the intercooler? How well did it end up running with the new setup?
