It;s fixed!

Turbo's are sensitive I guess,leakdown,compression test,everything fine,at Sabin in Dallas,we checked everything,finally found a leak in the header,one of the pipes was covered w,exuast residue,we tightened it and started it up,perfect,no more miss,and it boosts great,idles fine and starts easy,what a relief,I didn't hurt the motor!Going to the track this weekend,this thing moves!Jim Sabin is a cool guy,and Steve at Mr Turbo was very helpfull over the phone.

Sure will(I need to learn that lockup clutch,it's harder to use then I thought)so if anyone has any suggestions on launch techniques with an mre multi stage,please feel free,snap n' slide doesn't work here,I almost wiped out and never got out of 1st gear(embarrassed to say the least),there is no excuse for this thing not to go in the 8's right off,it would murder my 12 with both stages of juice short shifting,and that's no joke,I will be posting pics of the bird soon.

Intra, with the lockup, you need to find what rpm the motor wont bog at and and leave higher than it. Once you get rolling with a lockup, there is no slipping it.
Or maybe get some kind of timing retard device that you can leave at a high rpm but the motor wont be making big hp, so its more controllable.
A 2 step maybe?

Intra,
What track are you going to be at this weekend and when? Sunday at HRP?
I am heading out there Sunday afternoon for the Green Light to put a couple passes on the new bike with air shifter and all the other goodies I added. I want to feel the bike out before next weekend.
Let me know.

No I will not have the NO2 running on the bike until next TxSHooutout. I do have it in the bottle for the Air SHifter but I do not have the kit for the shot. So I will run with the ET's boys this coming weekeknd and next time we race I will run in the ET class no juice and Shooutout class with juice.
