The 6-spd (968) is actually stronger than the 5-spd. Take one apart and you'll notice the difference. I have both 951S tranny and 968 tranny. I like the gearing on the 6spd, the shifting on the 5spd is nicer due to the short shift kit.

(c88951) I put 369.1 HP and 341 Tq to the wheels at 19 psi using 95 octane gas.
Who sells 95 octane gas? or is it a blend?
Why are your tq #s so low verses the hp #s?
I have seen many dyno chart for 95ones and most of the time the tq and hp are closer except for 2.8 and 3.0 blocks ware the tq is higher.

I have seen the dyno charts first hand. The numbers are real. Sat night after c88951 got back from the dyno, I saw the charts and saw first hand what the car could do. It pull like a ............
The fuel was blend using 93 Octane and Xylene. Luke, the hotside looks like the one I am using. It is a direct bolt on to the hotside so it appears to be a #8 hotside. The rest of the information will remain a "trade" secret I guess.
Luke, where did you get your turbo to innercooler and innercooler to throttle body pipes from?

The 16 PSI run was done using just 93 octane. I always recommend higher octane for anything running more boost, better be safe.
Xylene was used as we didn't have access to race fuel.
WARNING: !!!!Xylene can damage rubber components!!!!

Just in case anyone suddenly got nervous about blending fuel with xylene/toluene
It's already there in a lot of fuels
see this link for an example, it's the material safety data sheet for Engen Dynamic 97 a 97 RON
unleaded fuel sold in South africa. Unfortunately
it's not available at altitudes above 1000m so I have to blend with toluene/xylene.
Note it's 10% xylene and 5% toluene, apparently some european countries allow up to 30% aromatics <a href="http://www.engendynamic.co.za/content/msds.htm" target="_blank">www.engendynamic.co.za/content/msds.htm</a>
