protorque

i don't know if i was expecting to much or i just didn't get a high enough stall speed but i'm kind of dissapointed in the performance....I do the proper launch and get a little scratch. Also i have a Vishnu stg.2 but i have major lag still????
any input welcome.

Ummm.
What exactly does Vishnu's stg.2 consist of? ( I'm so use to Cobb)

The TC mod is suppose to rise your stall speed, and not change the overall feel of the trans. Now I can see if you were driving a higher power car, then come and drive your rex, it might feel different.

Quite the mods you have.

To tell you the truth, I don't know what to say.....

It could just be you, or something else. I know on some days my car feels "strong" and I hardly notice the lag, and on others it seems like a real slug.

great help thanks...
you know i don't have a trans cooler yet but i'm not really driving it so i'm waiting, also i test in about 30 degree weather so i figure i'm ok for now. All and all i expected the wrong thing but got what i should have. I do have more torque at low cornering to exit fast and also i got a scratch out of her on a 3500 launch. thanks guys great links above.
