Nice.

How's the gearbox coping with shift points etc?

Can you just get the flash box retuned to alter your shift points, like the CAPA ones?

Yeah Mark it's way better than it used to be,there's just a hint of flaring on kickdown now but i'll wait till after the tune. The tune that came with the kit made it better but i've chased setup since then and improved it.
Yeah i can alter the shiftpoints though i'm not sure to what degree.
I still haven't put this thing on the chiptorque dyno and got it tuned through the X-flashbox box yet and it's been over 2 months.
Mark how's your brain ticking,bet you can't wait to get it on with some boostedness.

Reading this, plus the Raptor threads has really made me wanna buy a supercharger! By the sounds of things, it's reasonably priced and easy to install power. As soon as I've paid off all current debts, i'm going to commit myself to some boost.

By my calculations, I should have enough to buy one in about 3 months. How's it go on fuel-efficiency?

I love it slick.
All the feedback i get on Raptors as well as my observations is better fuel economy except for those moments when ya bury the foot so to speak.
