well that sucks there wasn't much improvement over the zpi stage 1. I guess there is such a thing as too much power (if you can't control it). But either way we all know that if theres anyone to do it its you. GL

Wow man,
Just started reading this thread last night...and huge congrats so far.
Todd makes some awsome ____, and im glad to see its getting the attention it deserves. I completely agree your 60' is whats absoluteley killing you.
In my turbo xA at 10lbs of boost, my 60' are about a 2.5 w/ street tires. Realisticly, for evry 1 tenth you take off ur 60', your gaining 2tenths off your 1/4...
shoot for a 2.0-1.70 and you will have 11's no doubt. Just need to slip the clutch and dont dump, aspecially on a open diff.

lol...i didnt notice you had an on-off switch for a clutch!
I def. missed that whole potion of stage 5 conversation, so yea, that makes sense.
Are you running a two step for your launch control or are you just holding the rpms and comming out of the hole?
If your not using a 2step controller, you may want to look into one. It would take a little more vaccum out commin off the line and kinda preboost if you follow. that may help a lot too!
Works awsome in my friends supra.

the stock diff will not let me launch. my best was a 12.69 @110 with a 2.1 60'. the thing is. i preloaded up to 4500rps. and dumped it. insted of launching the thing just fell flat on its face. so i let air out of the tires, but my 60' got even worse. so i let more out. my last run was a 60' of 2.7 
the diff is in bad shape. the more grip i had, the more damage i did to the diff. until i get a lsd, i wont see 11's. i'll try and go back soon and run more psi tn the slicks so that it catches as the wheels are spining on the launch, and i might be able to get low 12's. once the car gets rolling it pulls like crazy. but it cant take the torque of a hard launch. so we'll see what happens with more psi in the tires next time. im hitting the rev limiter in fourth alot sooner. it hits right at about the 1000'. still doesnt leave me enough time two shift into fith and gain speed. so my trap speed will stay at 112 until i raise the redline.

looks like the diff isnt the only thing that couldnt handle the torque. i just checked under the hood to find a very severly twisted etd bracket. looks like i need some mounts now too. my sponsor in vegas needs to come through with some parts.

olaHalo! Get to spending!
Damn, is that the ingals or the MMW?
I was having a long discussion and the Ingalls guys said "our never break, that must be the other brand. But it looks like it was the bracket, not the actually etd that was twisted, right?
I got the speed source motor mounts, and their great (only got the front in right now) so you could get those.
But you know Todd is working on mounts as well. You might want to hit him up and see if you can get one from him. Not sure if he's doing front and back or just fronts, but my front took me 15 minutes to install.

Awesome numbers man!
Go Hydra or help us 2zz motor owners bug greddy to make the v-manage for us. VVT-i tuning will give you wayyyy more usable power and torque than a bigger turbo will at this stage. Have you touchev VVT-i at all with a CAMCON or anything?

i say this because your MPH b4 was 112 i don't remember your 60ft but your mph now is 110 on a bigger turbo that why i asked if its laggy. Plus your going to have to bring that mph up to go 11's because even if you do a 1.9 60ft your best at that mph should only be 12.1 or 12.3 not sure. I think Kennys scion went 12.1 @ 114 and chris rado's scion went 12.01 i think at 120 thats with a 2.1 60ft also i think
