looks like fun Ackbar, hope you enjoy it when you get it in.
What else are you doing other than a shortblock? Any h/c/i stuff going to happen? oh, and it's a trap! Sorry, I couldn't resist

"Although the wepons systems of this Death Star are not yet operational, there is a weakness."
Nope, same setup, just new engine. I think 125 trap speed with 15PSI, on pump gas, should be possible

I'd be more worried about it coming apart on a launch with slicks.

T5 is toast probably 2 weeks after you get all back together then its auto with a stall time.

NO AUTO!!!
I went with a 306, for cost savings mainly. Figured a pound or two of boost would make up for it Itll be cool, I get to race this cocky WRX owner here soon. He seems to think a gearset will save him  Id give you guys the links to his smack talking, but you have to register to see the post.

The T5 can last with no slicks or powershifting. My T5 made it one season running 1224-128ish only at the end did it start to whine after a couple pretty HARD launches on DR's.
