sorry, haven't been on very much, i've been out DRIVING !!

Got her tuned... 443 whp, 474 torque at 22 pounds of boost (race gas only at that level). Not bad for a tC.

We've discovered this is about the limit of the Turbonetics set up with the log style exhaust manifold. The car would not produce much more horsepower above that 22 pound mark, so that's the limit for now.

I'm using the TBC-1 boost controller, which allows boost by gear -- pretty cool stuff.

I'm going to drive and show this summer, then in the fall we'll dig in and see if we can't get more out of it.
