You need a lot lower gear ratio with a std trans. There is no TQ converter to multiply tq, also you have 5th, and 6th gear to use. Getting off the line with a std is nothing like a stalled vato.

Spoolin I'm talking back when he ran 9s on a 200 shot or whatever. But anyways I was just throwing that out there.

Seems instead of members just blocking him we miss out on good builds and normally great advice that people sometimes don't agree with cause it's different

even after all of the problems/broken parts and heart ache he refuses to go auto. his mind was made a long time ago to stick with that stick!

if this turbo kit ever came up for sale, i would have to come up with some money to buy it!

i'm not a hater at all. actually i've always been impressed w/ his builds and he's always willing to share his info on many sites. seeing his turbo 4.8 build is one reasons i decided to go turbo on mine. driving a manual on the street is a blast and fast as hell from a roll. i understand why he doesn't want to go auto just for better track times.

but its normal for that. i think i remember everyone hating on flaco saying hes lying about his set up. but good job on the build. and go run some 1000's on the highway
Hes just a very abrasive person in general, even down to arguiing that turbos facing each other will fight their air intake. I dont think many people have actually hated on his ability, just his personality. We let him come back one time as a test and he was here only a couple weeks before he had to go back.

Lets keep this thread on topic about his truck, not his personality.

Congrats on finally getting your truck running George I know youve been working on it forever.

take it youre calling him out also? quiks truck is by far a race truck ( track truck ) on other sites he plaining says its for highway rolls, where the T56 would kill an auto he was making shakedown passes not even at full potiental. her has no desire to strip his truck diown. by the way i didnt post his results for people to hate on him, i posted for the people that admired his build and wanted to know the outcome or even if it was complete or not.



thank you





lol really i think that would be a couple of damn good races

that truck is insane on the street!!!
I am glad to see I am not the only one you are a rude *** hole to!

i just honestly dont like the people that hate but cant back it up. if your gonna talk **** atleast have something in your garage that is as fast as your mouth. but its always the same few people that talk **** about EVERYTHING that is decently better then what they have. just go to their profile and look at all there post's you'll see
