No, the next mods are: Midpipe, Pulleys, New plugs/wires, then by then I should need a new clutch.
I'm not really doing anything else to the outside....

Gotta work Chrism...
I'm going to try to get a video tonight heading to work, I don't know how good it will be considering I have to hold the camera and shift at the same time, but it will be better than nothing.

Are you shifting early in the RPM range on purpose? or is that a limitation caused by the turbo setup..

Profec is the boost controller

Well atleast with the early shifting you could see how the engine still had power too push through 3rd and 4th like nothing at less than optimized shift speeds (( example: in vid 2 I believe it shows how his car pulls from 60 to over 80 in 4th at better speeds than a stock 8 would pull from the same speed in 3rd)) nice setup =)
