I just got boosted a couple of weeks ago. I'm running 8lbs and I can feel the tranny having problems with it. I usually try to let of the gas a little to get out of boost dure gear changes. Hope the tranny holds up until I can save enough to get some tranny work.

you might want to upgrade your clutch and/ or install a LSD

LSD, there isn't one made specifically for our car that is a true LSD. For big power, a Phantom Grip one will not make it, but therea re rumors that a Quaife LSd for a 6thgen will work in our cars.

My Intake sits on top of my clutch slave cylinder, due to where the turbo sits. It broke on me about a month ago, and haven gotten it fixed yet. I was waiting a few weeks on my clutch though, and didnt drive it during that time. I am finishing it all up tonight. I just need to put my axles on, and find a pic of an engine bay to see where this little bracket goes. My engine has been running nicely though, and holds up well to 10psi (which I wouldnt recommend on a stock motor)
