His KEP and six puck are holding fine, it's those 2 inflatable spares he is running on the rear that's causing traction problems

The only thing I keep thinking after watching that video is that 951 tachs are laggier than Jim's turbo! j/k Looks like it's time for an Autometer or something. Glad to see everything is running well Jim.

The camera work was too steady to have been recorded in a fast car! Fake!

Not just cheap , they are of poor quality and lag by 500-700 rpm ...

I did not notice that on the last 951 i did with stock tach , tools delay if any is possibly from his ecu...

Dude - that is a copper/ceramc 6 puc sold disk and a kep stage TWO pressure plate wth something like 3600 LBS clamp.
The clutch does not slip.
The tires are spinning - they are only 275 MPS's with 40% LSD and it was only 84 degrees out .

Boost line blew off halfway through the vid. You can see it works at the start, then not at the end.
Give me a break - engine was just started first time on Saturday.......
I mean, I think it was....obviously this is not my car because that guy was speading on the public highway and I would never do that.
