Do you suck at driving? Honest question here.

I should clarify, I'm not asking if you suck because of the times you posted, I'm asking if you suck so that a fair guestimate can be given as to what times you can reach.

you will do much better with a new clutch bro, dont sweat it, the only thing to worry about with a heavy clutch a few extra boosted ponies, is wheel spin. i have seen car spin sooo bad that thier times were slower. its all about getting it to hook up well thats all

built a6? get a clutch and crank the boost.

its pointless to even try on a fried clutch.

its possible but if your motor is built you might as well just run closed wastegate on the the 14b, only gonna get about 250hp out of it

with that new clutch you might want to keep an eye on the crank...sometimes those hardcore clutches like that can make the crank move when you shift hard. just a lil reminder. keep an eye on it (if you race a lot)

I find it hard to believe that you went through the trouble of the motor, but kept a 14b. May I ask Why?
