Remember Rand, the 1-2 shift sylinoid is too small, doesn't hold enough pressure to shift firmly. Drive it a lot, the DHP has to learn the cells and it will take a week or two of "spirited" driving to get it to learn all the cells. It will get better as it learns and sets it self to the right shift speed and pressure.

You can make as many passes as you want, some guy a few years back made 54 passes in one day, I made 10 last year and left lots of cool down time between runs, enjoyed some brats, hotdogs, and burgers that "House" made, damn those were good.

xxbackhillxx · 04-05-2006, 02:34 PM

ggghghhhghgh... those were good brats for sure. Burgers too.

Yeah BUT ive had my DHP for almost a year and a half. Believe me, ive stomped the sh!t outta this puppy

I want the tranny mount anyways, i think milzy is right, we loose alot of power when this engine rocks like it does. Im gonna find out if thats true anyway.

When you unplug your battery it will reset and you will have to make it learn those cells again, especially if you disconnect the battery at anytime.

Well... Things are starting to find their way back to my garage:

But there is no way I'll be able to make MGM. Perhaps IDD?

Vinaashak · 04-12-2006, 10:44 PM

This should be fun this year for sure. Im still not sure if im gonna run or not. If the trans is not in then i can run and hope to break it for 1/2 off but it may not be worth the risk of not breaking it. I dunno, maybe i will just race other peoples cars then. We may need to start thinking of a convo since this is only like a week away.

Im in the same boat man

AaronGTR · 04-13-2006, 04:27 PM

Still going for sure... and still planning on bringing my car. Just waiting on metallman to send me his TB so I can get my throttle plate installed in my new TB. Finish the intake and then I can drive it at least. Still won't have time to get the new injectors in by then though, so no WOT for me.

xxbackhillxx · 04-13-2006, 04:29 PM

Aaron ... injectors are cake

coupe · 04-14-2006, 07:03 AM

Oh yeah! If anyone has stock springs they would like to sell bring them! I will buy them......no im not demodding

xxbackhillxx · 04-14-2006, 07:16 AM

If anyone has stock springs bring them and $100 and I'll give you aftermarket springs for them.

Figured you'd say something about it. Mine won't be that easy though because I have to change the clips on the harness, then I still need to make my changes in the pcm. I have some other stuff to do also while I'm taking it apart and I just don't have time.

I have some stock springs btw, but I'm not looking to pay to get rid of them.
