Project: Auto FWD

Time for another update.

I took the car to proving grounds and made 4 passes. The transmission worked flawlesly. It shifted hard and didnt slip. Launching the car with the nitrous and the stock converter worked pretty well. I think with better bottle pressure and no other issues the auto would do better then my best 60ft with the 5 speed.

I never made any full passes because the car had a really bad missfire anytime it was in boost. After messing around with it I think I might have burnt out 1 or both of my fuel pumps by letting it run out of fuel. so im now in the market for some cheap walbro 255s or a big single pump

Heres a good pic from proving grounds of the car in its current state.
