Rep Power: 360 so why do people route the wg to be closed loop? whats the advantages/disadvantages? I understand how a turbo works and all of the parts but i never asked/wondered why people do this differently.

Rep Power: 0 Not sure if the TC has poly-urethane engine mounts out yet or if you guys have any (doubtful from the vid?) but they would be a great help with the engine rocking and wheel hop produced by it. Nice numbers and thanks for the vid with sound first time i've heard a 50mm tial

Rep Power: 413 Nice run. Joe, what did the tow home run you? 
Thats the "problem" with driving a modded car to the track, always the chance of killing an axle, tranny, or clutch and having no way of getting it home.... Then again, running good times makes up for it...
