    Baller edition. From the reviews I've read he is THEE man for an 80e. I'm a tight ass if you can't tell. I also don't think my car is putting out enough power to warrant spending a lot on parts I'll never break at my level.

    No reason to spend a ton if you don't need it, from what I have read/gathered on the interwebz, a stock 80e with the HD2 kit should handle under 700 for a while. Nitrous launches and T-brake boosted launches will be dangerous if you have a heavy car with lots of HP to the stock shafts but I am running that risk as well with my built unit.

    Jake seems to be the man with an 80. Who I went with also.

    I've read anywhere from 650-750 on the stock unit and hd2 kit. Either way I think I'm safe. Car isn't too awful heavy (3300 without driver). No t-brake launches but hoping to leave the line on full boost. I'll give it a go and if it doesn't hold I'll step back and punt

    my birthday weekend and im actually off. YAY! gotta change plugs/oil and some other things on the car, go over my whole suspension just to check for rod-end wear/cracks/loose bolts, recenter my panhard rod, put all osie's suspension stuff on his car, maybe go annoy @popo8 at a car show depending on weather and how far i feel like driving.
