Ok.. Arm twisted.. Made the "After" video today.
Limited to 21psi - made a video comparison of the 19t to the 68hta..
19t@22-23psi 68HTA@21psi.
Ill probably do an "AFTER, after" video once the boost is turned up.

68HTA is the schiz.. Bang for the buck you can't go wrong..
The side by side was interesting.. The 68hta really stretched the 19t out up top.
I need better tires.. Even on a rollon from 20mph the tires just ripped loose and spun to redline in first.. Suprisingly they hook in second a bit better with the 68hta.. The 19t was just spin city 1st and second most of the time.. 19t has a realllyy violent and low down off-on boost.. 68hta is almost as nasty, but the tires seem to like it better..
Tires on there currently are crappy crappy are 215 - Hankook R-S2's.. Noooooo Traction.. The car pretty much just sits and spins in first from a launch.. Im poor now so I wont be able to upgrade the rims anytime soon.. On the hunt for some decent 225's for the 16's that will hook up a bit better / still have decent wear.. Car is a dd

Best I can figure based on tire size and RPM/gear and speed via GPS it looks like the ratios match a Type RA.. The car has a bit of a history.. Actually it once was married to an AP.. Some local tuner might actually know the car.
If it's not, when I nuke it, I'll probably swap to a 6 speed and piggyback DCCD controller. Dunno if I really want a 6 speed, but I'm not seeing another alternative..
I'm usually pretty nice to the trans.. I've got a decent amount of experience with high HP AWD cars / preserving drivetrains.. This thing has a lot of clutch, but it can be slipped pretty well on the 2step..
tks.
Yeah, the tune is conservative/rough until I get that MAF sorted. But it made for a good comparison of the two snails.. They were pretty much on the same tune..

Hah.. We'll see.. Either way I wont cry if this one blows.. It's pretty noisy.. I don't mind gear whine, but I do get annoyed by a trans that rattles at idle when its hot..
Sounds like the preload is way off somewhere.. Dunno if its normal for a Scoob trans to be noisy at idle.. Every once in a while I will panic when rolling to a stop and think I hear some rod knock or a failing main.. Then I remember that this trans sucks and hit the clutch and the sound goes away as soon as the trans spins down..
*Edit.. Its not THAT loud.. I'm just super conscious of what the car sounds like.
