325IX restore and build continued(turbo, e34ix diff, DCT)

I ran 235's on my ix without real issues. 225s fit easily. You just have to get the offsets right.

What was your time? Do you know your time for the 1/4? And I forget, what is your diff ratio?

They didn't have anything to time each pass unfortunately. On the street I did a 11.82 spinning through 3rd lol. I haven't tried again since I dialed in the launches but it should easily by high 10s as it sits and hopefully touch 9s at full power. Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk

It doesn't look like the mustang won by much. A fender? Were you running 8th mile?

Ya it was close, way closer then I thought it would be and I'm sure it was closer then he expected too, and ya its only 8th mile. Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk

Went to a local flash light drags this weekend. I'm still only running 20psi so I'm estimating around 400-450hp but plenty enough to have some fun. But that's gonna change soon. It was a pretty small event unfortunately, only like 20 people but there were a few fast cars. The truck was my buddy, he threw a 125 shot on it to have some fun because his car isn't finished lol I ended up finishing 2nd overall. Won the awd class and only lost to that orange mustang by which was 700whp with drag radials. So I was pretty excited to keep up with a fraction of the power. https://youtu.be/HaCp5pK800Y Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk

Do you already have 8" wheels? 225's fit. Would take a little fancy machine work, but it looks possible to convert the carrier to 6 planets from 3, one way or another.

I used to run 215's and they were super close to my strut towers. I'm going to switch to a 4 port boost control valve to see if I can bring the boost in a little smoother but I do need to do something for traction Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk

you'd probably have a much quicker time not spinning through all those gears too. Wider is better. Do you remember those old Pontiac commercials that said something on those lines?

Ya if I could get traction I think I would easily run high 10s Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk

Putting the new tcase to the test. First time actually launching on boost with this setup. This is spring pressure and pump gas. Completely spins through 2nd and depending on the road through 3rd also, may be time for something wider than a 205 lol https://youtu.be/dM1tjKdao-w Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk

Never seen a planetary gear fail. How's the chain? I wonder if something got in there.

Well, I have killed my first transfercase. Not to bad for probably 100's of awd launches.

Honestly though I think its self inflicted. When I had everything apart last year I changed all the fluids and it was pretty low, and considering they don't hold much to begin with doesn't help.

It's a good thing I hord ix parts, time to pick the next lucky candidate.
