I simply blew it

The o-ringed headgaskets did not work with this setup. So now, we're doing our own o-ring job on them with some other tweaks with Emre@Esmotor. It's ready actually, will be on the car shortly. This is the only change for now. I have couple more stuff in my mind, which I would like to share later.

I don't have much of a Protomotive stuff on my car left actually, I'm using Esmotor custom turbo kit and tiptronic kit. Ecu and Tcu tune is being done by Emre. I'm using 91 octane + methanol injection.

It was all good, but Esmotor custom made a new one in house for my car, which I think works slightly better.

You must do the Esmotor tiptronic upgrade to be able to run that kind of power. I'm positive that we would be somewhere in mid 9's with high 150's, low 160's with this setup, on mid boost. GT3071's are perfect for stock motor, but for 4.0+, GTX3582 or more is the way to go.

The kit is complete and was slipping my tranny on ms109, It ran a 10.2@ 140 with the tranny slipping, it has 2k miles on it, anyone with a 6speed its perfect, i have the gt3071r and they spool real fast!! if u have a tip you will have to esmotors tranny upgrade. Car ran 10.8@ 135 on pump gas.

Are you sure about MKB? I have their upgrade and so far everything ok. If it was now I would go with EMSPORT but two years ago it was not an option

I know its not *** good, it doesnt shift *** fast *** semotors, mine shifts like stock, but it does have all the gears changed the extra clutch packs, valve body, and bearings, it also came with an extra oil cooler. There was no one else to do it except mkb, was about 6k for everything, I do have a spare tranny sitting at Switzer that im going to put Esmotors kit in it, Motorwerks said it will hold 1k awhp, so we will see about that!

I completely changed the system. New exhaust, new headers, new intercoolers, new throttle body, new y-pipe etc.
